Manus provides educational resources to benefit students, teachers, tutors and families. Founded in 1985 by Rosanne Manus, M.A., the company’s mission is to help students with learning barriers achieve success in education. Our customized model of instruction provides students an opportunity to learn well and at a pace most appropriate for their individual learning profiles.
We consist of four entities: Manus Academy, Manus Tutoring, Manus Institute and Manus Curriculums. In our academy, we work with students with such academic barriers as learning disabilities, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autistic disorder, anxiety and depression. To help our students succeed, we customize not only their instruction but their learning environment, too.
In our after-school tutoring program, we work with students who attend other schools. These students come to us for subject tutoring, remedial tutoring to build basic skills and/or homework and study skills coaching.
In our institute, we work with students who attend other schools and are having trouble mastering a particularly challenging course, such as algebra or a foreign language. Upon each student’s successful completion of the course, we send his or her regular school a transcript with the course credit.We also train teachers in other schools who wish to increase their effectiveness in working with students with academic barriers.
At Manus Curriculums, our academic store, we offer our academic process and curricula to teachers working with students with specific needs. The process and curricula are research-based and have been subjected to rigorous in-house testing. The end results are strong educational programs where every student shows progress.
