Many parents are not aware of the multiple, core, basic skills that are no longer considered mandatory to teach in public schools. As owner of Ace My Course tutoring services, and a professional tutor for 18 years, Ms. Jennifer Whitaker has noticed the rising lack of basic skills in youth that are graduating high school not addressed.
Some people believe that these skills, such as cursive writing, are no longer needed as the world is becoming more reliant on technology, but it is not true according to Ms. Whitaker. According to Ms. Whitaker at Ace My Course, which lots of parents agree, having a signature is still mandatory for signing agreements. Without the ability to sign agreements of various sorts, today's youth will not be able to get jobs, since they cannot sign tax forms. The same concern will prevent today's children from getting a mortgage or renting a home.
It may sound like Ace My Course has gone overboard, but it is a reality we all have to face. This will not just hurt the youth; this will hurt everyone, causing economic problems from employers having a harder time finding qualified candidates to filling jobs within the legal realm, especially as Baby Boomers and the generation or two that follow retire. As Baby Boomer and the two following generations get closer to retirement, there will be a rise in the percentage of job candidates that are not able to be hired as a result of lowering of the quality of education in public schools.
As a result, according to Ms. Jennifer Whitaker, Ace My Course tutors in Katy, TX, have seen a growth in the demand of writing tutoring. More kids are going through school using "lazy texting" in place of proper English, yet getting A's and B's in school, even graduating high school. Schools are not addressing the students' confusion of "lazy texting" with proper English. Children are going through public schools using made up acronyms like L.O.L. for laugh out loud and using this lingo in applying to jobs.
As a result of the findings, and many others too long to name at this time, Ace My Course tutors have developed programs for proper writing, both creative and technical writing, basic math, typing, and many others that would fill up a book.

In addition to having live, in-person tutoring individually, and online 1-on-1 tutoring, they have recorded videos of tutoring, and group tutoring online, as well as in-person for low income families. Ace My Course accepts donations, as well as uses 10% of profits from paid tutoring, books, shirts, and all other education resources, toward providing free tutoring services for those who can prove they make $24,000 a year or less in total household income.
If a person believes he or she cannot afford high quality tutors, but makes above the income threshold, don't worry, they have additional options. Ace My Course focuses on making high quality education available to all Americans with equal opportunity to high quality education. The word around town is that parents are being provided tutors with 20 years experience tutoring for only $25 an hour. If this rate is still too much for a person's budget, consider getting together with other parents to join to make group tutoring where rates can get as low as $15 an hour per student in the group with a minimum of 3 students at a time for at least 2 hours a week.
Ace My Course tutors also offer up to 5 hours a week of free tutoring, in total of all clients. They have openings now. If parents sign up for the newsletter, Ace My Course will keep them informed when there are openings for free tutoring services for those who provide proof they make $24,000 a year in total for the household. Note all these affordable options are only available if clients meet at a certain location in Katy. If tutoring is required to take place in another part of town, excluding online tutoring, then there will be higher costs as travel fees are added.
In conclusion, many people have said they were certain they will be able to succeed based on Ms. Whitaker's mission, as she says, "Together Ace My Course and parents can make a difference in your child's future. Ace My Course wants to make brighter futures for all Americans regardless of income."
