New Year, New You: Invest in Yourself Through Education | The Tutoring Nurse

By Sherlley Jacques, Founder of Tutoring Services Plus & Tutoring Services Plus Foundation

As we celebrate the holiday season, many of us take time to reflect on the year behind us and dream about what’s ahead. January is just around the corner, which means New Year’s resolutions are on everyone’s mind.

Here at Tutoring Services Plus, we believe the best resolution you can make is investing in yourself. After all, the greatest gift you can give your future is the power of education. Whether you’re working toward your GED, improving your English through ESL classes, supporting your child with K–12 tutoring, or preparing for the SAT/ACT, education is the bridge to a brighter tomorrow.

The Best Investment Is You. Don’t wait another year wondering what if. This is your moment to step into new opportunities, new confidence, and a new you.

5 Tips for Going Back to School or College in the New Year

If 2026 is your year to return to school, college, or adult education, here are five practical tips to help you succeed:

1. Set Clear Goals: Know exactly what you want to achieve, for example, passing the GED, learning conversational English, graduating from college, or boosting your math skills. Clear goals will keep you motivated when things get tough.

2. Create a Study Routine: Consistency is key. Even if it’s just 30 minutes a day, having a set time for learning helps you stay on track.

3. Find Support and Community: Don’t try to do it alone. Join classes, study groups, or tutoring programs like ours that provide encouragement and accountability.

4. Use Resources Wisely: From online tools like Quizlet and Duolingo to local libraries and tutoring programs, take advantage of every resource available to you.

5. Celebrate Every Milestone: Whether it’s acing a practice test, finishing a chapter, or mastering a new skill, recognize your progress. Small wins add up to big success.

Start the Year Strong

As we enter a new year, imagine where you could be by this time next December if you commit today. Education has the power to open doors, create stability, and transform not just your life, but your family’s future.
