Why 'intervention' and not 'tutoring'?
Intervention is an individualized program that targets specific development, such as foundational reading and math skills. It addresses specific learning deficits (e.g. phonemic awareness, number sense) that are preventing the student from reaching grade-level expectations. Intervention will not only help build foundation skills, but will also increase their confidence in all areas of learning.
Tutoring focuses on reinforcing or extending learning in a specific subject. It is often designed to help students understand content they may be struggling with. Tutors usually support students through the curriculum assigned by a classroom teacher.
Key Benefits of Academic 'Interventions'
Meets your child where they are truly at...
Our programs are created out of the specific academic tests we administer at the onset of meeting your child. We are able to begin where they need and move at a pace that the child needs.
Easier to see measured progress...
Since this is one on one intervention, we are able to solely focus on your child and the smaller steps forward are noticeable to the interventionist and adjustments can be made in real time.
Research based/Criterion referencing...
We are committed to using data driving decisions as we employ Level B tests to initiate proper programming and then compare these results to updated performance to see growth.
Relevant and interesting...
Since the programming is specific to each child, each lesson is relevant to the child as it helps address their exact learning needs. We can include the child's strengths and interests as we can individualize for each child.
As educators and parents, we hear...
"We just want to find out where our child is REALLY at - sometimes the report card can be a bit confusing. If they need help, I need to know and then need to know where I can turn to for quality help."
