Tutoring Services
All families are screened before services begin through a phone interview. Our services are designed to help your family get a correct diagnosis and a remedial program that will bring results!
Tutoring
Tutoring consists of a minimum of two 50-minute, one-on-one sessions, per week. Your child will be screened to determine which program will be utilized.
Our tutors have received explicit training in each of the systems they utilize.
How Do We Approach Tutoring?
We approach tutoring in a way that is individualized for the needs of each student.
Each program used to remediate an area of difficulty is chosen due to its explicit approach to the specific area to be targeted. Most often a multisensory approach is used due to strong research based evidence that shows these kinds of programs are highly effective with long lasting results.
