Program Overview
Mission
Gateway Center for Education's mission is to provide instruction and training to individuals for the purpose of improving and developing their capabilities.
Program Description
Gateway begins with a diagnostic assessment to determine exactly where students' skill levels are. Then we have a goal-setting session to develop the high-impact tutoring program that is designed to bring the skill levels up to where they need to be and to continue them from there.
