Individualized, Superior Academics Comes to Lubbock

Find Power Learning for Your Child(ren)

We were asked to come to Lubbock to improving literacy through a micro-school.

We propose to begin with tutoring. I specialize in:

*Reading for ages 4 to 7 yr olds. They will think they are playing.

* School readiness assessments

* Bright children with some learning challenge

*Bridging from homeschooling to university.

We also train teachers, and coach parents, micro-schools, and administrators of private schools and CDCs.

I am being contacted about “classes.” “Learn to Read” pods for 4-6 yo. “Love to Read” reading group ages 8-12yo. Manners, Cooking, etc. Too late for those offered starting just after Spring Break. Please contact us with your interest, so you won’t be left out of the summer semester.

Professional, Standardized Assessment of School Readiness

Would you like to know if your child is ready for elementary school? What needs to be boosted? Or exactly how gifted he or she is? Now you can know.

K-SEALS, the Kaufman Survey of Early Academic and Language Skills, is a test for 3 to 6 year olds. It will show you where your child stands compared to other children across the nation of the same age.

It surveys skill development in these areas: Vocabulary, Number Letters & Words, Articulation, Expressive Language Skills, and Receptive Language Skills.

The K-Seals is given individually, which allows for much better assessment. The face to face assessment takes about an hour, depending upon the child. After scoring, the score is explained and you are given a record.

Unlike reports given out by psychologists which seems like Greek to most parents, we go over the findings and make sure of clarity. (So time investment on parents’ part is about an hour, a week of waiting for scoring, and about an hour for results.)

Like any assessment, the record should stand as guidance to parents/educators of how and what to teach. Homeschoolers will use the record as they choose curricula and courses of study. Others will use the record to choose a school and provide enrichment.

Call for appointment. 512-534-5425 info@NOSPAMorgstrat.net (take NOSPAM out of the address before using it, thanks) $197.00US

In Lubbock, K-Seals is available most Fridays.

Central Texas – late May, early June

DFW – mid June

Atlanta, Chattanooga, Knoxville – Early August

Florida – September (sorry, face to face is best)

Study Skills Guide Available

Needing help as we wrap up the term?

At this time of the semester, it is a mad dash to make a grade. So, this is the time highschoolers and college students turn to tutors for help. Well, this book might help. Of course, learning personalized study skills at or before the term would make the whole term go easier. https://www.lulu.com/shop/sharon-sarles/how-to-win-the-game-of-school/paperback/product-1v85djg2.html?q=How+to+win+the+game+of+school&page=1&pageSize=4

Mastermind for Homeschooling Moms / Parents

Heart-breaking questions. I see so many new to homeschooling who are absolutely lost. Increasingly the answers on Facebook are … not so great, as more experienced home educators are rolling off Facebook or have already finished homeschooling. Understanding is so lacking that it is nigh impossible to answer in 100 or so characters. But, after a lifetime of…. I can certainly provide answers, options, and resources.

How about a group? Content like a class. Q&A like a group coaching. It is a Homeschool MasterMind group! Would you like local, face to face, with refreshments in Lubbock? Or would you like online?

I’m thinking 8 weeks, rotating topics, 2 hours max. I have Sunday, Tuesday or Wednesday evenings only (that I can sacrifice.) Or we could do some naptime. I think I can go as low as $297, at least for this beta version. We will need about 10 to make a great group.

Any takers now? Email info@orgstrat.net

PS. Individual coaching for 6 months is $4999, just like for anyone else. (Coaching means one person and that person’s problems/challenges. Business consulting is for an organization, is a different process, and has a different fee structure, of course. For businesses: www.orgstrat.net)

Book available: Learn at Home for Great Shalom (and others either on wwwlulu.com or amazon.com).

Free audio content for more than 15 years: Great Shalom : Overcoming Learning Podcast on www.greatshalom.org or wherever you get podcasts. So, should prove up my ability. Choose your level, remembering level of investments is level of reward.

PPS. Imagine what life will be like in 6 months to a year if you do nothing. Then, imagine what life could be like, if you had an experienced guide showing you the way, dramatically shortening your information gathering, and helping you thru blind spots.

Imagine how much fun it would be to be in a group, making friends, other people with similar challenges.

Hackers, you are wasting time

Some fools have been working very hard to hack this site. Silly, because it makes no money in itself and would not be worth ransom. Maybe they are focussed on the word “shalom” or maybe they are violent anti-seminte extremist. Except we are not Jewish and not even teaching religion. We just love children. And care about learning.

So… why would someone hack it? Because they know maybe that the value of a handful of littles learning how to read is what is valuable? Okay, well, let’s do that then. Anyone got any littles? Or want to learn how to teach littles? Or bigs, for that matter? LOL

Big News: book launch

My newest book has just today been launched. It is entitled: Re-founding Education: Jesus’ Teaching Method for Parents, Pastors, Teachers & Administrators.

We know we have problems. Yet, all the tried solutions disappoint. This is because we are using the same model of education that was intentionally put on the wrong track. Let’s get back on the right track, by following the Great Teacher, Jesus.

Even a non-Christian would admit that Jesus must have been a great teacher, since his teaching still inspires so many people. Why are not Christian schools and Christian teachers looking into how Jesus taught? The last published attempt was 1895!

We start with a brief history of education in the United States — which ends up being very revealilng. We briefly cover the situation in private schools and educational movements. Then, we get into 7 lessons from how Jesus taught. Then, we very briefly point the way forward.

BTW, the book is on sale now, in Kindle format: https://www.amazon.com/Re-founding-Education-Teaching-Teachers-Administrators-ebook/dp/B0DXHN8XGZ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

NOW: Tutoring in Reading and Math

About this time of year, parents are frustrated with:

their child not reading,

their child not understanding their math,

the child’s teacher not caring,

the school not working.

Yes, I know. I’ve been there. My daughter has been there with her children too. However, we have lots of victory to tell about.

Come to me. Let me either tutor your child OR show you how to “home-school.” Either way, call now. Now is the time for good foundations. Now is the time to instill the love of learning. ssarles@protonmail.com

Do not let the government school teach your child that learning is stupid and bad ….. or impossible! Do not let them cause inability to read or inability to do math. Stop now, and go a different direction. Learning is fun and just about every child can learn to read — easily! Like play!

And then, outperform academically and in life.
