The confidence they get from succeeding drives the students to look forward to the next challenge. “Once a week, with a 1 teacher to 5 student ratio, the teacher guides students to master material in targeted workbooks. The teacher then instructs students on the concepts needed to continue at home. “The self-learning method allows students to be intrinsically motivated, which is an important component to being prepared for the 21st century,” says Ellwood. Instructors are available to answer questions and when students complete tasks independently, they are better prepared to apply their learning in the school classroom.

Another benefit to the franchisee is the automated inventory management system which in turn, means less involvement by the owner. The system and database monitors the franchisee’s inventory and assists with maintaining levels. Besides utilizing technology to monitor the centers’ inventory levels, they also tap into it for instructional purposes, helping evaluate students upon enrollment. These diagnostic tests use JEI’s proprietary technological applications to determine the appropriate curriculum for the students, and the precise starting point for optimal performance. It also helps monitor the student’s progress, lesson plans, assignment timelines, and the student’s next assessments. All this data is fed into a system where it is analyzed, and the instructors and center director are given access to the analytics. The result is an “instructional prescription” for the student.
