We do not offer sibling discounts; however, we do offer a financial assistance program. A reduced rate for initial testing and hourly tutoring sessions (eligibility based on household size and income) is available to qualified applicants. One child per household may be approved at a time on a reduced rate. Email or call to request the application.

Our program is designed for children who are struggling in reading/spelling, comprehension, writing, or math, and who are below grade level in one or more of those areas. We are not an enrichment tutoring company. If your child is already at grade level, we are not the right fit for him or her.

To date, we are not aware of any insurance plan that covers tutoring.

We are not in the business of offering a clinical diagnosis. If you or your child’s teacher suspect that your child has a learning disability, you should consult with your doctor and/or school. Our assessments are used only for the purpose of constructing an individualized tutoring plan for your child, and to establish a baseline for measuring progress. We do not offer advocacy services, but we are more than willing to communicate and actively coordinate with the classroom or resource teacher in order to better understand your child’s challenges.

We do offer a homework, study skills, and test-taking strategies program for middle and high school students only. Please see the OTHER SERVICES page for more information. For children in the elementary grades, our program is geared towards systematic programming for reading, writing, and math difficulties, targeting skill gaps, teaching strategies for problem-solving, and enhancing the cognitive processes of visual and auditory processing, memory and attention…which are the fundamental components of learning. Therefore, our learning specialists do not assist with the completion of school homework in the core program tutoring sessions.

We do not offer sporadic, drop-in tutoring. Families are required to commit to a twice-weekly schedule when accepting an opening. Please do not enroll if you cannot consistently attend each week. Our learning specialists rely on the income of a full schedule, and we often have a waiting list of children in need of services. Please respect this policy.

All elementary aged children in our core program are required to commit to attending twice a week to ensure consistent repetition and reinforcement of concepts. In some cases, a once per week, 1.5 or 2 hour tutoring session can be arranged for older children (grade 6+) who have already completed a minimum of 30 sessions, in order to accommodate families who have a long distance to travel, or difficult schedules. This is dependent upon tutor availability.

For Coldwater Road or library locations: If school is cancelled, that does not mean tutoring will automatically be cancelled. Please contact your tutor to determine if tutoring will take place. For tutoring at a school location: There is NO tutoring if school is cancelled, unless the tutor contacts you to make alternate site arrangements.

We do offer tutoring at your child’s school, before or during the school day, with the school’s permission. We have had several parochial and private schools participate in this option in the past. Contact us to see if an onsite tutor is available and then discuss this with your school’s teacher/principal. We do NOT offer in-home tutoring.

We do not offer free tutoring, but we do offer a financial assistance program. A reduced rate for initial testing and hourly tutoring sessions (eligibility based on household size and income) is available to qualified applicants. Email or call to request the application.

We strongly recommend a minimum of 30 sessions for your child to realize the benefits of consistent reinforcement of concepts. A progress evaluation is completed after 30 hours of tutoring, and results and a recommendation are shared with parents. As long as attendance, payment, and family support have been consistent, re-enrollment is an option at that time. Since the program is pay-as-you-go, you may choose to be done at whatever point you are satisfied with your child’s progress.
