The field of education is often confusing and complex. The essays in this book examine topics that parents and students face as they maneuver through a seemingly intractable maze of issues. As founder and owner of Northern Virginia Tutoring Service since 1995, and as an adjunct faculty member at Northern Virginia Community College since 1984, Dr. Ralph Perrino has seen first-hand the confusion parents and students experience as they proceed through the K-12 and college years. Dr. Perrino and his wife, Denise Perrino, who co-authored several of the articles in the book, have a combined sixty-five years of experience in the field of education. They have prepared this compilation of essays in the hope that it will help parents manage the issues facing them and their children. This book is also intended to serve as a guide for parents and students as they maneuver through the myriad issues, options, and decisions necessary for successful completion of the education process. The topics covered are diverse: the socialization process and its impact on children and learning; when and how to hire a tutor; using drama techniques to teach math, science, and other core subject areas; when, where and whether a student should go to college; the digital divide between social classes; the impact of technology on higher education; community college as a financial and academic option for many students; college funding. The essays cover many more issues of interest in the education community.
