Others Subjects - Just Ask!
Our educators are trained in the principles of Structured Literacy—a highly effective, explicit, and systematic approach to reading, writing, and math—using programs rooted in the Orton-Gillingham methodology. While this is our primary specialization, our team comes from diverse educational backgrounds with expertise in subjects like science, social studies, and French. If your child needs help in another subject, let us know! We can often match you with a tutor who will expertly teach that topic while using multisensory strategies to reinforce the literacy skills your child is already building.
