Smart Studies Learning Center
Smart Studies Learning Center is an after-school program that offers personalized tutoring services in all subjects up to grade 8. We assess the specific needs of each student and develop a focused curriculum that not only supports his or her academic goals, but also fosters confidence and self-direction. Lessons are given in small groups of no more than five students by seasoned, certified teachers who are experts on the standards set by Virginia Education Department and Loudoun County Public Schools.
