Highly Interactive Free Classroom Tutoring
Chicago IL (USA), December 2009 - Brain Hurricane tutoring focuses on the interaction between teachers and students to make classroom learning a fun experience. The company develops tutoring programs that teach students through interactive classroom sessions and involve hands-on learning for subjects like math and reading skills.

The Brain Hurricane tutoring programs contain curriculum related problems that students can solve by themselves to get a clear understanding of the concepts that are taught in the classroom. The student participation in the learning process makes the tutoring programs unique, as students do not sit in the class only listening to their teachers. The teachers at Brain Hurricane have developed relevant curricula that match the educational standards of state and national levels.

The Brain Hurricane tutoring programs divide the students into teams and offer hands-on lessons where the students solve problems that can have various solutions. By working together in teams, the students learn to work with each other collectively and also compete with the other teams. In the Brain Hurricane tutoring programs, the students try to find different ways of solving a single problem.

The creative and practical advantages of the Brain Hurricane tutoring program give the students the ability to solve classroom problems in a new way, and they also find the classroom activities a fun break from the lectures that they receive in the school. The Brain Hurricane tutoring programs test the knowledge levels of the students and also help them in finding their creative side. Each day’s class ends with a small program where the students are given prizes for their participation and attendance in the classroom.

Brain Hurricane is a family company founded by Reed Howard, and tutoring programs are free.
