Tutoring Services

Our services develop the foundational literacy skills needed by successful and independent readers and writers. We provide small group or 1:1 phonics-based instruction. Other literacy components such as phonological awareness, comprehension, morphological awareness, and vocabulary are included within instruction. Our team of educators utilizes evidence-based practices and programs along with research-based approaches to guide our instruction.
