General Info:

We are all committed to helping children with learning problems improve their skills in a context of love for reading and for books. Each tutor has received specialized training in the multi-sensory techniques and programs that we feel (and science has demonstrated) work best with dyslexia and other reading problems. Our sessions, while intensive, are low-keyed without pressure. We all agree that there is something special about one on one instruction and that everyone's excitement in the children's progress becomes contagious. We also all participate in on-going teacher training conferences, and the workshops we offer for both teachers and parents are of great importance to us. Testing For Dyslexia If your child is having a problem in school, your school system may already have done a multi-factored evaluation (commonly referred to as an MFE). This should consist of a battery of individually administered tests in areas such as reading, spelling, and math as well as an evaluation of language skills--both expressive and receptive. In addition, an individually administered test of cognitive abilities (a rough guide to what ought to be expected of this child), such as the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (commonly referred to as the WISC), would have been performed. If this testing has not been done and your child is struggling, you ought to request it in writing, and be sure to date your request. Should be no cost through public schools.
