TUTORING, ASSESSMENTS, AND INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATIONAL PLANS FOR OPTIMAL LEARNING * Reading * Math * Organizational Skills * Study Skills for Any Age * College writing * TSI: Compass or Accuplacer refresher * Coaching in the transistion from home education to college * Inferential Statistics Yes, we will help with the class or grade at hand, but we offer much more : a truly holistic, really multi-sensory, actually individualized package. We have "pulled off miracles" for a wide variety of students. We are particularly happy to offer help to first graders in learning to read - easily. Imagine! a few hours of tutoring avoiding a series of defeats and a diagnosis of learning disabilities, and all the problems that can follow. We are thrilled that we have been able to help several children, some with serious diagnoses, over the important hurdle of learning to read. For older students, we can help them learn to write college level papers, manage their time, and find amazing study strategies. We have long "gotten a kick out of" helping students discover that they CAN be successful, when they have not been successful in school before, whether they were a displaced homemaker, a returning student, a troubled teen, a middle schooler with "stikes against him", or favored young children who just need a little boost. Our results have often been astonishing. Students do not need more of what is not working. Work with us to find strategies that do work! We start with a personal relationship with the student --listening to their needs and hopes. Then we proceed to discover learning strengths and weaknesses. Only then do we suggest individualized learning strategies for achievement. We support this effort with secret keys to the physical and mental challenges of learning today. These include special exercises that improve brain “wiring”. Program may include lifestyle changes to support more optimal learning ability. Cutting edge research on brain physiology and long known faith, positivity, and determination combine to make power learners. We envision a day when a family's efforts can be supported through convivial and informative monthly meetings. We also offer a academic and learning assessments. Home educators have let us know they would like help in interpreting testing and planning individualized education plans. We can help with that. Support your child, yourself and the community of learners. Allow us to support you in your most critical mission: acquiring skills for learning in order to nurture full potential and achieve dreams. Do not wait until small problems become large. We prefer to see students in grade one, at first inkling of difficulty. Do not wait until a small bump becomes a huge obstacle. We also offer consultation and training to private school faculties, Christian Educators, and Early Childhood Center Directors and their staff. Home educators, please also see www.faithfamilylearning.org. CDC Directors, please see www.orgstrat.net. We still offer consultation and training in Lubbock, but only distance tutoring, suitable for older students.
