Applied Behaviour Analysis is the science of behaviour and learning of socially significant behaviours. They need to be meaningful to the people we serve and support them in achieving a better quality of life. Examples of socially significant behaviours are as below: Requesting for wants and needs Learning to use the toilet Learning play, social and leisure skills Being able to perform independent living skills and self-help tasks Learning academic skills Increasing the variety of foods Improving levels of tolerance to medical procedures and routine appointment such as the dentist and the hairdresser We can also use the science of ABA to teach individuals readiness for learning skills and decrease behaviours of concern which include skills such as: Cooperation Expanding preference for items and activities Flexibility Reducing excessive and inappropriate behaviours Attending skills Reducing behavioural supports in line with learner readiness and the acquisition of independence Behaviours of concern include: Feeding, Sleep and inappropriate and excessive behaviours such as teaching a child to stop when out and about and reducing throwing behaviour. Other examples are challenging behaviours which include self-injury and aggression towards others. Applied Behaviour Analysis has been used with a variety of populations including those with autism and developmental disabilities (Van Houten et al, 1988; Roane et al, 2016). Studies show the effectiveness of ABA in the teaching of children with developmental disabilities when compared with eclectic approaches (Howard et. al, 2005). However, ABA is not just used with autism and developmental disabilities. ABA can also also be used: In organisations as part of staff training (Parsons, Hollinson & Reid, 2010) With individuals that require self-management strategies to deal with areas they are struggling with such as addiction (Petry, N. M. et al, 2000) To help with anxiety and depression (Hayes, S & Smith, S., 2005). ABA is also used successfully in animal training (Pryor, K., 1999). ABA literature has studies published and evidence based research in each of the above areas. This list is not exhaustive.

Who are PLS Tutors? We're a maths tuition firm looking to change the way in which tuition is done by making it much more personal and giving students all of the tools they need, all of the time. Our aim is to provide high quality, competent tuition that stimulates students and encourages them to reach their full potential. Our Philosophy Tuition in general is far too orientated around learning in the actual sessions, and students are often left wondering how to revise and where to get started when the session ends. But at PLS we believe students should have all the tools they need 24/7. That's why at PLS we aim to create a much more personal learning experience outside of our sessions too. Our Solution We created the PLS Learning Community. Suppose you're revising and you come across a challenging question. You don't know where to start. You spend lots of time searching the web for tutorials and pointers, but none of them are very effective. You then realise you're part of the 'PLS Learning Community'. You screenshot the question you're stuck on and send it into the Community Discord. One of our professional tutors responds, guaranteed, within four hours with a pointer on how to tackle the question and even an in-depth solution to see how the question should be tackled. You now don't have to endlessly search the web for answers. You now don't have to wait until your next maths lessons in a few days time to ask your teacher for help. That is how learning should be. All the tools you need at your disposal. All of the time. What We Offer Competent tuition both online and in-person from DBS checked tutors. An inclusive, high value community where students have all the tools they need at their disposal 24/7. High quality revision resources such as question packs and challenge papers that contain not only detailed handwritten worked solutions but also in-depth video walkthroughs to every question.
