rue luxury can be all of these things combined, and Mercedes-Benz of South Orlando is honored to serve Central Florida as the top Luxury Car Dealership. Their dedicated team of professionals strives to provide both sales and service customers with the “Mercedes-Benz of South Orlando VIP Experience.”

When General Manager, Rubén Santiago joined Mercedes-Benz of South Orlando, he knew that his values and goals were directly in sync with those of owner, Dorian Boyland. Both are committed to raising the bar and changing the consumers’ mindset of luxury car dealers. “For far too long the automotive industry has not placed enough importance of doing right by the customer and treated customers as expendable. We stay focused on never losing sight in exceeding our customers’ expectations,” says Rubén Santiago. Selling the top luxury brand helps attract customers, but luxury is not only made up of a make and model. It also takes a team that is passionate about building a loyal and trustworthy relationship with every customer, placing an intrinsic value on their needs, wants and desires, before they can even be asked for. Whether you are purchasing a new/pre-owned vehicle or bringing in your Mercedes-Benz for service. Mercedes-Benz of South

The allnew luxury equipped CLA and GLA now give you an affordable way to place a 3-pointed star in your driveway. Mercedes-Benz has always been the luxury brand that consumers depend on. From graduates to professionals and ever-growing families, all roads lead to the top Luxury Car Dealership in Central Florida, Mercedes-Benz of South Orlando.

gutters, which can prevent water damage to the home’s foundation,” says Chris Terrill, CEO of HomeAdvisor. “The average cost of cleaning the gutters is $212 according to HomeAdvisor’s Cost Guide.” From spring to winter, Terrill offers these maintenance tips to help homeowners save money and time in the long run:

fall

• Plumbing. Every spring inspect all plumbing for leaks. Small problems, like leaky faucets and clogged drains can turn into big headaches if left unchecked. The average national cost of hiring a plumber to repair pipes is $411. However, repairing water damage can cost seven times that amount.

• Gutter and downspouts. During the fall, clean the gutter and downspouts. According to HomeAdvisor’s Cost Guide, the average cost of cleaning the gutter and downspout is $212. Ignoring this matter can affect the foundation of a home, which can cost an average of $4,607 to repair.

• Roof. Checking for damage and making general repairs in the springtime can extend the lifespan of a roof. Neglecting to make these minor fixes can lead to long-term damage. The average cost of replacing and installing a new roof is $7,744.

• Windows and doors. Install weather stripping during the fall for an average cost of $458. This will prevent unwanted air from leaking into a home. On average, homeowners spend 40 percent more on heating and air conditioning due to drafty windows and doors.

suMMer • Trees and shrubs. The average cost of trimming trees and shrubs is $577, but leaving them untrimmed can lead to roof damage. The average cost of repairing a roof is $1,100. • Paint. In the summer, touching up the home’s exterior paint not only boosts its curb appeal, but it also acts as a home’s primary defense against weather, insects and other damage. If a homeowner neglects to complete this task, completely repainting the home’s exterior costs an average of $3,180.

WinTer • Refrigerator. Vacuum the coils on the back of the fridge during the winter. Letting the coils build up with dirt and grime can decrease its efficiency, and can cost $317 to repair. • Furnace. In the winter, service the furnace to make sure it is operating properly, safely and to its fullest capability.

❄ Tips for every season • Garbage disposal. Flush the garbage disposal every season. Regularly doing this will keep your disposal clean and functioning properly. The average cost of repairing a clogged drain is $381. • Smoke detectors. Be a responsible homeowner and test the smoke detectors seasonally. Smoke detectors are the single most important step to ensuring home safety, and having one during a fire increases the likelihood of survival by more than 50 percent.

4 Consejos Para Facilitar el Mantenimiento de Su Casa Some home maintenance jobs require a significant investment of time and specialized equipment, but there are many projects you can accomplish efficiently with basic tools and the right approach. Follow these 4 tips to get started. Algunas tareas de mantenimiento de la casa requieren una significante inversión de tiempo y equipos especializados, pero hay muchos proyectos que usted puede realizar de manera eficiente con herramientas básicas y el enfoque adecuado. Para comenzar, siga estos cuatros consejos.

Update your toolbox. Take inventory to ensure your collection is complete, and replace damaged or rusted tools. Your toolbox is also a good place to store common repair items such as adhesive. For quick fixes with no dry time, use Glue Dots. The doublesided adhesives bond instantly to virtually any surface without using clamps.

Actualice su caja de herramientas. Realice un inventario para asegurarse de que su colección esté completa y reemplace las herramientas dañadas o con moho. Su caja de herramientas es también un buen lugar para guardar artículos de reparaciones comunes, como los adhesivos. Para realizar reparaciones rápidas y sin tiempo de secado, use Glue Dots. Los adhesivos de ambos lados se adhieren instantáneamente a prácticamente cualquier superficie sin el uso de abrazaderas.

Get ahead of potential problems. For example, have a plunger on hand to prevent clogged sinks and toilets from causing water damage, and keep gutters and filters clean to prevent structural damage or fire. You can also protect your home and valuables from damage by using adhesive to secure precious items from getting knocked over. Prevea los posibles problemas. Por ejemplo, tenga a mano un desatascador para evitar que los fregaderos y los inodoros tapados ocasionen daños con el agua y mantenga limpios los canalones y filtros para evitar daños estructurales o incendios. Usted también puede proteger su casa y objetos de valor al usar un producto adhesivo para evitar daños por golpes.

Casa I Home

Making sure you have the right tools on hand and taking preventive steps to get ahead of potential problems, will make minor home repair jobs quick and easy so you can get back to enjoying the comforts of your home. For additional home repair tips, visit www.GlueDots.com. Asegurándose de tener las herramientas correctas a mano y tomando las medidas preventivas para anticiparse a los posibles problemas, harán que las tareas menores de mantenimiento del hogar sean rápidas y fáciles para que usted pueda volver a disfrutar de las comodidades de su hogar. Para más consejos sobre las reparaciones del hogar, visite www.GlueDots.com.

3

Be creative. Most phones have flashlights that can help with minor jobs and your phone’s calendar can be set with reminders so that you will never miss a maintenance date. In addition, find creative ways to make tasks easier. It can be tough to keep items in place while nailing or screwing into walls or ceilings, or installing features such as undercabinet lighting. Glue Dots are a handy solution that won’t damage the surface, don’t expand and won’t make a mess.

3

Sea creativo. La mayoría de los teléfonos traen linternas que pueden ayudar con los trabajos menores, y puede configurar el calendario del teléfono con recordatorios para no olvidar las fechas de mantenimiento. Además, busque por las maneras creativas para facilitar las tareas. Podría ser difícil mantener las cosas en su lugar mientras clava o atornilla sobre las paredes o techos o mientras instala artefactos de iluminación debajo de los gabinetes de cocina. Glue Dots es una solución práctica, que no dañará la superficie, no se expande y no ensucia.

4

Get organized. Daily home maintenance tasks like cleaning are easier when they are done along the way rather than letting them pile up, creating a bigger job. Store everyday needs in each room, or on each floor. For maximum efficiency, keep cleaning supplies in both the bath and the kitchen, and a broom and vacuum on each floor.

4

Organícese. Las tareas diarias de mantenimiento del hogar, como limpiar, son más fáciles cuando se hacen de manera continua, en lugar de acumularlas y terminar con un trabajo mayor. Guarde los artículos que usa a diario en cada habitación o en cada piso. Para mayor eficacia, guarde los artículos de limpieza en el baño y la cocina, y tenga una escoba y una aspiradora en cada piso.

ccording to the Journal of Clinical Psychology, 45 percent of Americans make New Year’s resolutions each year, and weight-related resolutions top the list. Only 8 percent achieve any type of resolution, weight-related or not. If you have made (and then broken) the same old weight- or health-oriented resolutions each January, you are not alone. It might be time to focus on research-proven approaches that actually work; without gimmicks, diets that eliminate foods, or buying strange foods and equipment. Según la publicación Journal of Clinical Psychology, cada año el 45 por ciento de los estadounidenses hacen resoluciones en Año Nuevo, y la lista está encabezada por las resoluciones relacionadas con el peso. Sólo el 8 por ciento cumple estas resoluciones, se relacionen o no con el peso. Si ha hecho las mismas resoluciones (y luego no las ha cumplido) relacionadas con el peso o la salud en cada enero, usted no está solo. Podría ser el momento de enfocarse en métodos eficaces que han sido investigados y que funcionan; sin trucos, las dietas que eliminan los alimentos, o comprar alimentos y equipos extraños.

Start Well: Eat Breakfast Start the day right, and it really can

make things go better all day. Research has shown that people who eat breakfast and take in more nutrients (calcium, iron, protein and fiber), are more alert, can concentrate better, and have better success with weight management. To start the day healthy, combine protein, carbohydrates and low-fat dairy. Some suggestions: whole grain cereal and a protein yogurt, an English muffin with peanut butter, or an egg sandwich with fruit and yogurt. Comience Bien: Desayune Comience bien el día, y puede mejorar el resto del día. Las investigaciones han demostrado que las personas que desayunan y consumen más nutrientes (calcio, hierro, proteínas y fibras), están más alertas, pueden concentrarse mejor, y tienen más éxito con el control del peso. Para comenzar el día saludable, combine las proteínas, los carbohidratos y los productos lácteos bajos en grasa. Algunas sugerencias: cereal integral y yogur con proteínas, un panecillo inglés con mantequilla de maní o un emparedado de huevo con frutas y yogur.

Make Fiber a Priority Fiber, found in whole grain wheat, barley, corn and oats, as well as in fruits, vegetables and beans, helps the digestive tract. Remember that grain fiber has different

nutritional benefits than fruits and vegetables, so you need both. Fiber is also filling, providing volume with few calories because our bodies do not have the enzymes to break it down. Fiber can fight the bacteria in the colon and prevent numerous health conditions. Priorice La fibra La fibra, que encontrará en el trigo integral, la cebada, el maíz y la avena, también en las frutas, vegetales y frijoles o habichuelas, ayuda al tracto digestivo. Recuerde que la fibra de los cereales tiene diferentes beneficios nutricionales que las frutas y los vegetales; por lo tanto, necesita ambas. Además, la fibra lo llena y provee volumen con pocas calorías, debido a que nuestros cuerpos no poseen las enzimas para descomponerla. La fibra puede combatir las bacterias del colon y evitar las diversas condiciones de salud.

If It Sounds Too Good to be True... If you lose 10 pounds in two weeks only to regain it in eight makes no sense. Whether you have tried to go gluten-free, low carb or avoid all white foods, chances are that your efforts did not result in longlasting effects. What does work? A balanced eating pattern and an active lifestyle. There is no one perfect diet, and anyone


Unless you use it often (2–3 times per week or more), skip the gym membership. Walk outside, walk the dog, dance in your kitchen, work in the garden or ride your bike to run errands. If possible, do it every day with friends for fun, and make it part of your regular lifestyle. Camine, Baile o Pasee en Bicicleta Para Mejorar La Salud Deje el gimnasio, salvo que lo utilice con

Schedule and Track Your Progress Make a schedule of your health goals, and keep track of progress by writing in a food and activity journal or calendar. Write how you feel before and after meals and exercise. You may be surprised by what you learn. The bottom line: Eat when you are hungry; strive for moderation and stay active to feel good.

Mantenga Un Horario y Darle Seguimiento a Su Progreso Prepare un horario con sus metas de salud y darle seguimiento al progreso escribiendo en un diario o calendario de alimentación y actividades. Escribe cómo usted se siente antes y después de las comidas y el ejercicio. Se puede sorprender con lo que ha aprendido. Lo esencial: come cuando tenga hambre; con moderación, y manténgase activo para sentirse bien.

TIPS TO TRIM CALORIES • • • •

Eat mindfully. Put all of your attention only on the food. Eat because you are hungry and not for other reasons. Eat slowly. You will stop eating sooner and register that you had enough. Eat without guilt. Consider whether the food is an “everyday” food or “sometimes” food and eat accordingly, enjoying every bite.

CONSEJOS PARA RECORTAR LAS CALORÍAS • Come a conciencia. Enfóquese sólo en la comida. • Come porque tiene hambre y no por otras razones. • Come despacio. Dejará de comer antes, porque considerará que ha comido suficiente. • Come sin culpa. Considere si el alimento es “diario” u “ocasional,” y come de acuerdo, disfrutando cada bocado.

Fad diets come and go. Here are some obvious clues that a diet is a fad rather than a realistic approach for becoming healthy.

10 Ways to Spot a Fad Diet

10 Maneras Para Identificar Una Dieta Pasajera Las dietas pasajeras van y vienen. A continuación, encontrará algunas pistas obvias que indican que una dieta es pasajera en vez de un enfoque realista para estar saludable.

1

If it sounds too good or easy to be true. Si suena demasiado bueno y fácil para ser verdad.

2

Promises rapid weight loss (5–10 pounds a week) or “miracle cures.” Promete una rápida pérdida de peso (de 5 a 10 libras semanales) o “curas milagrosas.”

3

Allows only certain foods or food groups. Permite sólo ciertos alimentos o grupos de alimentos.

4

Promotes a product, special herb, vitamin or other compound. Promueve un producto, una hierba especial, vitamina u otro compuesto.

5

Can only be followed temporarily and is not supervised by a doctor. Sólo se puede seguir un tiempo y no tiene la supervisión de un médico.

6

Hard to imagine or difficult to follow the diet. Es difícil de imaginar o seguir la dieta.

7

Does not recommend a form of exercise or says that it is unnecessary. No recomienda ningún tipo de ejercicio físico o dice que es innecesario.

8

Warns that one food or food group will make you seriously ill or worse. Advierte que un determinado alimento o grupo de alimentos hará que se enferme de gravedad o peor.

9

Makes recommendations that are not endorsed by credible organizations or reviewed by other scientists. Hace recomendaciones que no son reconocidas por las organizaciones creíbles o sin la revisión de otros científicos.

10

Cites research that is preliminary, based on animals, or uses poor methodology. Cita investigaciones preliminares basadas en animales, o usa metodología deficiente.

frecuencia (2 o 3 veces por semana o más). Camine al aire libre, salga a pasear al perro, baile en su cocina, trabaje en el jardín o pasee en bicicleta. Si es posible, hazlo todos los días con amigos para divertirse y hazlo parte de su estilo de vida de forma regular.

who says otherwise is typically selling a book or products promising weight loss. Dietitians and nutritionists can be trusted to provide credible, evidence-based information that can be tailored to your lifestyle and taste preferences. Si Suena Demasiado Bueno Para Ser Verdad… No tiene sentido perder diez libras en dos semanas para recuperarlas en ocho semanas. Si ha intentado comer sin gluten, con pocos carbohidratos o sin harina, es muy probable que los esfuerzos no sean duraderos. ¿Qué funciona? Una alimentación balanceada y un estilo de vida activo. No hay una dieta perfecta, y quien afirme lo contrario seguramente estará vendiendo un libro o productos para perder peso. Confíe en las dietistas y nutricionistas que proporcionan información creíble y comprobable, que puede ajustarse a su estilo de vida y sus gustos.

reventable medical errors have become the 3rd leading cause of death in the United States, with approximately 440,000 deaths each year. Simply stated, 1 in 7 patients will experience a medical error during the course of their hospitalization. But medical errors can occur anywhere in the healthcare system: in hospitals, clinics, surgical centers, doctors’ offices, nursing homes, pharmacies, and patients’ homes. Medication errors are a type of medical error, involving an error at any step along the pathway that begins when a clinician prescribes a medication and ends when the patient actually receives the medication. Patients have the ability to drastically reduce this type of medical error by becoming advocates in their care. Historical views of the patient-physician relationship assume that the physician’s role is to act in the best interest of the patient and to direct care and make decisions about treatment on the behalf of the patients. This paternalistic model of medicine, in which patients have little voice in their care, has evolved into a model in which patients and physicians work in partnership toward the common goal of improved care and reduction of medical errors. For this new model to be successful, and to

ensure that patients are partners in decision-making about their management, the patient needs to be more engaged and involved in their care. All patients are at risk of medical errors, but the patients that meet the following characteristics are particularly more susceptible to medical errors: • Those taking multiple prescribed medications. • Those that have more than two physicians in addition to their primary care doctor. • Those with dysfunction in two or more organ systems. • Those with poor knowledge of their medications and/or what the medicine is prescribed for. What can you do to reduce medical errors? >> Make sure that all your doctors know about every medicine you are taking. >> Bring all of your medicine and supplements to your doctor’s office. >> Make sure you know why you are taking all your medicine and check during every visit if the medicine is still needed. >> Ask your doctors to share their office notes with all the clinicians that you are currently seeing. >> Bring a notepad to your visit and write

down your diagnosis and treatment plan. >> Review the care plan given to you at your doctor’s office to ensure accuracy of the medication list and problem list generated. >> Make sure your doctor knows about any allergies and adverse reactions you have had to medicine. >> Go to your appointment with family members if you have problem with memory loss. >> Know that more is not always better. Always check if all the requested tests are necessary. >> Learn more about your condition and treatments so that you can ask useful questions during your visits. >> Most importantly, speak out if you have questions or concerns. “All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong, and repairs the evil. The only crime is pride.”— Sophocles, Antigone Dr. Alabi is from the Florida Lung, Asthma & Sleep Specialists, PA; located at 2940 Mallory Circle, Suite 204, Celebration, FL 34747 and at 4553 Pleasant Hill Rd., Poinciana, FL 34759.

os errores médicos evitables son la tercera causa de muerte en los Estados Unidos, con aproximadamente 440,000 muertes cada año. Es decir, uno de cada siete pacientes va a experimentar un error médico durante su hospitalización. Pero los errores médicos pueden ocurrir en cualquier lugar en el sistema del cuidado de salud: en los hospitales, las clínicas, los centros quirúrgicos, en las oficinas de doctores, los asilos de ancianos, las farmacias, y en los hogares de los pacientes. Los errores en los medicamentos, son un tipo de error médico, un error que ocurre en cualquier momento y que comienza cuando un médico receta un medicamento y termina cuando el paciente recibe el medicamento. Los pacientes tienen la habilidad de reducir bastante este tipo de error al ser defensores de su cuidado.

o one is immune from being confronted with problems in today’s hectic world. Whether it’s marital, work related, family issues, life transitions, a sense of loss of purpose, or just an obnoxious neighbor, how we attempt to resolve these problems successfully, will depend on how willing we are to face those challenges and develop the skills needed to resolve them. Trying to deal alone with such problems may be overwhelming, stressful or

depressing, to the point that it is easy to fall in an emotional turmoil that can be eased with the support of professional counseling. This is when someone like Diana Castaño, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), can help the person resolve and cope with the anxieties and perplexities of life, in an effective and meaningful way. Castaño has many years of combined experience in working for different counseling agencies, providing counseling services for individuals and families.

europlasticity. Brain training. Cognitive skills. Are you already in a mental fog? Neuroplasticidad. Entrenamiento cerebral. Destreza cognitiva. ¿Está usted ya en una neblina mental? What exactly is brain training? If you are thinking electrodes, hypnotic trances and brain scans, think again. Brain training is basically a system of exercises and challenges that strengthens mental abilities. Simply put: brain exercises that make you smarter. ¿Qué es exactamente entrenamiento cerebral? Si usted está pensando en los electrodos, los trances hipnóticos, y los escaneos del cerebro, piénselo otra vez. El entrenamiento cerebral es básicamente un sistema de ejercicios y desafíos que fortalecen las habilidades mentales. Sencillamente es: ejercicios que hacen que usted sea más inteligente. The idea of brain training is relatively new, because until recently, scientists believed IQ and intelligence were fixed at birth. However, modern brain science revealed the brain’s neuroplasticity - its ability to build new pathways, memory, and reasoning “power centers.” This plasticity means the brain can be strengthened, IQ can be increased, and quite often, learning disabilities can be eliminated. La idea de entrenamiento cerebral es relativamente nueva, porque reciente-

mente, los científicos creían que el IQ y la inteligencia se determinaban al nacer. Sin embargo, la ciencia moderna del cerebro reveló la neuroplasticidad del cerebro – la habilidad de crear nuevos conductos, memoria, y los “centros de poderes” para el razonamiento. Esta plasticidad quiere decir que el cerebro se puede fortalecer, la inteligencia se puede aumentar, y a menudo, se pueden eliminar las discapacidades de aprendizaje. During a one-on-one brain training sessions at LearningRx Orlando, personal brain trainers focus on strengthening the weakest cognitive skills. Cognitive skills are the underlying mental skills that allow us all to think, learn, reason, remember and pay attention. They include skills such as memory, attention, processing speed, logic and reasoning, and visual and auditory processing. They quickly push their student onto faster, harder, more intense exercises, with lots of quick corrections, immediate feedback, and extensive distractions. Durante las sesiones individuales de entrenamiento cerebral en LearningRx Orlando, los entrenadores cerebrales y personales se enfocan en fortalecer las destrezas cognitivas más débiles. Las destrezas cognitivas son las destrezas mentales subyacentes que permiten a todos nosotros a pensar, aprender, razonar, recordar, y prestar atención. Estos incluyen las destrezas tales como la memoria, la atención, la rapidez de procesamiento, la lógica y el razonamiento, y el procesamiento visual y

auditivo. Ellos llevan al estudiante rápidamente a los ejercicios más rápidos, fuertes, y más intensos, con muchas correcciones rápidas, reacciones de inmediato, y las distracciones extensas. Brain training differs from tutoring. Tutoring is a short-term fix. It addresses the symptoms of learning struggles by simply re-teaching academic information that the child should have already learned. Brain training is a lifetime fix. It attacks the source of learning problems by strengthening core learning skills, and eliminating the problem. El entrenamiento cerebral es diferente a las tutorías. La tutoría es un remedio a corto plazo. Se dirige a los síntomas de las dificultades de aprendizaje con simplemente volver a enseñar la información académica que el niño debió haber aprendido. El entrenamiento cerebral es un remedio de por vida. Se concentra en la fuente de los problemas de aprendizaje al fortalecer las destrezas principales de aprendizaje, eliminando el problema. For example, consider a student diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Brain trainers will target the cognitive weaknesses and focus on building up the three different types of attention to strengthen them to the point where there is no longer a deficit of attention skills. When attention skills are strong, quite often the symptoms go away, the need for medication is eliminated, and the label no longer fits. Por ejemplo, considere a un estudiante que ha sido diagnosticado con el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención con Hiperactividad (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - ADHD). Los entrenadores

cerebrales van a concentrarse en las debilidades cognitivas y enfocarse en edificar los tres diferentes tipos de atención para fortalecerlos hasta el punto donde ya no hay un déficit en las destrezas de atención. Cuando las destrezas de atención son fuertes, muy a menudo los síntomas desaparecen, se elimina la necesidad de los medicamentos, y el problema ya no existe. Reading struggles are another example of how brain training can revolutionize learning. Studies show that more than 80% of reading problems are caused by weak auditory processing skills, more specifically phonemic awareness. That’s the ability to analyze, blend and dissect sounds. Once that skill is successfully trained, reading and learning become much easier and faster. Las dificultades de leer son otro ejemplo de cómo el entrenamiento cerebral puede revolucionar el aprendizaje. Los estudios demuestran que más del ochenta por ciento de los problemas de leer son causados por las destrezas débiles en el procesamiento de auditivos, específicamente el estar consciente de la fonética. Esa es la habilidad de analizar, mezclar y disecar los sonidos. Una vez que esa destreza es exitosamente entrenada, el leer y aprender es más fácil y rápido. The 2014 Report of LearningRx Training Results shows impressive gains for students of all ages and levels of academic abilities. The study of more than 6,000 students showed LearningRx brain training programs resulted in an average IQ increase of 15+ points and a 3.1 years reading growth. El 2014 Report of LearningRx Training Results demuestran los beneficios impresionantes de los estudiantes de todas las edades y los niveles de las habilidades académicas. El estudio de más de 6,000 estudiantes demostró que los programas de entrenamiento cerebral LearningRx resultaron en un promedio de más de 15 puntos de aumento de inteligencia y un crecimiento de 3.1 años de leer. Before you spend money on any brain training product, ask for referrals, results, guarantees and testimonials – sort of a no brainer. Antes de que usted vaya a gastar dinero en cualquier producto para entrenar el cerebro, pide por las referencias, los resultados, las garantías, y los testimonios – algo que no hay que pensarlo.

Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips

by Raúl Morales

Providing the Best Tutoring For Your Child

E

very parent wants their child to excel in school. But parents know that their child may not always have the best grades in a particular subject. Whether it’s with math, reading or writing, a child could struggle in school, and parents may not be able to provide the help they need. It is understandable that some parents may not have the time to tutor their own child or the skill necessary to adequately provide the specific tutoring. But now, Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips offers parents the opportunity for their child to receive the tutoring that will enable them to get the grades parents would be proud of. Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips offers after-school private tutoring from Kindergarten to 12th grade. All the teachers at Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips are certified by the Orange County Public Schools or private schools. This ensures that every child will receive the highest quality of tutoring. Each student is provided with an iPad® to facilitate the learning process.

Only three students are assigned to one teacher, so they can receive individualized instruction whenever they need it. This allows students to express themselves and motivate them to participate in a friendly environment without feeling uncomfortable. This also helps the child develop social skills. Parents are kept informed and involved with updated progress reports and activities students can do at home. In the STEM program (Science-Technology-Engineering-Math), during the summer, the child can participate in the Robotics Camp or the Coding Camp, for grades 2-8. The Robotics Camp introduces students to the building and animating LEGO® robots. Each session encourages creativity and imagination, developing critical STEM and problemsolving skills. The Coding Camp offers computer programming through animating stories and creating 2D video games. This technology uses thousands of backgrounds, props, characters, and music to help bring the child’s imagination to life. Be-

sides the Robotics and Coding Camps, Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips also offers Math Edge (basic math program for grades 1 – 5), and General Tutoring. The summer schedule is from June 15th through August 7, 2015. For those parents who want their child to improve their education, but are not financially prepared, Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips offers Your Tuition Solution, a convenient payment plan through Springstone Financial LLC. Sophia Wasu is the executive director of Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips and her husband, Ranjit Wasu is the administrator. They believe that learning should be personal. Sylvan Learning of Dr. Phillips is located at 7598 W. Sand Lake Rd. Orlando, FL 32819, in Plaza Venezia, above Starbucks. Tutoring Hours: Monday – Friday 3:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. Saturday 9:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Summer Hours: Monday – Saturday 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. For more information, call 321-301-6879, 407-270-7303 or visit www.sylvanlearning.com.
