Summer Tutoring at Study Hut Tutoring

July 8th, 2008

Study Hut Tutoring individually tailors instruction to all ages. Our local and comfortable study culture enriches students in order to dominate on tests and raise grades. The Study Hut team fuels the ambition of students who have “cooled off” academically, as well as students who are eager to learn organizational and study systems which make school easy.

Chemistry students, to name one tough subject, are working effectively with local college graduates who attended the same class as their students. Elementary and middle school students are learning how to write a strong high school essay, a format that works with any topic. Bruce, a favored local tutor and product of the Manhattan Beach school system, comments about the goings on at the Hut. “Locals who train locals is not a new idea…coaches have been training kids outside of school for a long time. We have added academia to the list of summer activities in which to train.”

We already have a few El Segundo students in the Hut and are happy to see more El Segundo faces.

Our relaxed environment mixed with a heavy dose of scholastic energy and enthusiasm is working wonders for our Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach students and we are happy to extend our efforts and energy over to our El Segundo neighbors! Our tutors use their depth of knowledge of the area to reach the needs of each student at the Study Hut…. but never without some fun, of course!

No need to feel like you are barely keeping your head above water in those pesky subjects when you can dominate them!

Where’s the Cure for Senioritis?

May 21st, 2008

It’s hard to stay motivated at the end of the year. This, we know. It’s unfortunate that crunch time arrives just as we can see summer time around the corner. This is especially true for those seniors out there! Ok, it doesn’t matter if you’re a senior; senioritis may be effecting you as well. It seems as if there is so much to remember and very little time to remember it. For some of you, it may feel as if your classes are caving in on you; subjects that were always difficult are now busting your butt! It can be really overwhelming. Read the rest of this entry »

Manhattan Beach Students: Listen to the professionals

February 15th, 2008

At the beginning of each semester it is all too common for students of every level, from grade school to university, to become lackadaisical with their responsibilities. The best way to have strong grades at the end of the semester is to play strong from the beginning; not having to play catch-up makes the whole experience easier.

Here at the Hut, we just saw our busiest period, seeing our kids through finals. After finals, kids try to take it easy, but we work to keep them on their toes. A little work now will save a lot of work later and we love to see that work ethic pay off for our kids. We’re talking to our kids and keeping up to date on their work and it’s obvious to us that the kids who are coming in now won’t be the ones booking last-minute extra appointments before test-times at the end of this semester.

I Suck at Reading Because it’s Boring

January 9th, 2008

Every other day or so here at Study Hut Tutoring we’ll have a student of ours do a reading assignment in here with us. A lot of kids that we have do this moan and whine “reading is boring, reading sucks, I suck at reading.”

Reading first and foremost should be entertaining. When I talk to the kids who say “reading sucks” about what books they’ve read, they really haven’t delved one iota into the many different kinds of writing and modern attempts at deviate characters that make the last century of literature so interesting. It’s not that I’m dead crazy about reading, it’s not like every book under the sun rocks my world. Read the rest of this entry »

Erik Anderson’s Blog Debut at Study Hut Tutoring

December 6th, 2007

Here’s a string of algebra I came across this weekend, see if you can find the error:

1. a = b
2. (a^2) = ab
3. (a^2) + (a^2) = (a^2) + ab
4. 2(a^2) = (a^2) + ab
5. 2(a^2) – 2ab = (a^2) + ab – 2ab
6. 2(a^2) – 2ab = (a^2) – ab
7. 2((a^2) – ab) = 1((a^2) – ab)
8. 2 = 1

What happened? In which step does the mistake lie? If a = 2 and b = 1 that a does not equal b.

But there didn’t appear to be any errors… so are all numbers really arbitrary and meaningless? Does 2 really equal 1?

No, it doesn’t. Where is the error?

If you said step one, you’re wrong. a does equal b, we go about the whole problem on that assumption. Step two is correct too and it’s all fine up until about step five, when we subtract 2ab. On step six, upon closer examination, both sides are now equal to zero.
a squared minus ab equals zero. But this is not where the mistake lies. If you said step seven, you’re correct. By dividing both sides by ((a^2) – ab) we were effectively dividing by zero.

In algebra, dividing by zero never goes well. By the time we get to calculus, we begin to see that almost dividing by zero results in very large numbers that approach infinity. That is limits.

So what happened by step 8 is that when we divide two by a very small number (or zero) it results in the same indeterminable, infinite quantity that results in dividing one by a very small number (or zero).
