Brain Hurricane, a family business, was introduced by Reed Howard after doing extensive research on the teaching methods adopted here. This tutoring program was initiated for the students from Kindergarten to eighth grade and is famous among the parents for offering highly efficient teaching methods which help the students to learn the lesson in a better manner. These teaching methods are unique and interesting which keep the students active and engaged.
This program lays stress on boosting self confidence and competitive behavior among the students and for this the students are divided into teams. This division of teams leads to increased team spirit as they are required to solve their problems related to curriculum with the help of their teammates. Highly qualified and skilled teachers employed at Brain Hurricane, undergo professional training to understand the teaching methods adopted here. They keep the interest of students in mind while creating the curriculum. The stress is laid on the reading skills, mathematics and vocabulary development of the students and the curriculum is aligned with the national and state standards.
Brain Hurricane lays emphasis on imparting practical knowledge it believes that the practical knowledge has more impact on the students than the theoretical knowledge. Center of Research in Educational Policy (CREP) at the University of Memphis which evaluates "what works" in the schools across nation was provided with complete 2007-2008 database of Brain Hurricane. This database enclosed the scores of students in all pre-posttest administrations of age appropriate Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) assessments and on comparing both these pre and posttest ITBS assessments, it was concluded that the students of Brain Hurricane showed average gains of around 14%.
