Dyslexia is a type of learning disability that is language-based. People with dyslexia experience difficulty with reading, writing and/or spelling. Dyslexia is a neurological disorder, and the severity is different for every child. Children with dyslexia require intensive teaching of sound to symbol relationships, to help them blend words and sentences for reading and writing.
If you have a child who has a learning disability, you may be able to deduct the cost of a tutor for after school lessons.
To do this, you will need a letter from a doctor stating that the tutoring is necessary. In addition, to qualify, the tutor must not be related to your child.
IEP stands for Individual Education Plan. An IEP is a document prepared by a professional in the education system, which illustrates:
specific goals to the student and how to monitor achievement
any adaptations and/or modification that would benefit the student
useful strategies
Along with daily communication with the tutor, we also provide monthly reports.
We are also open to emails and phone calls, as well as, setting up meetings to address any additional questions and/or concerns.
At least 24 hours notice of a cancellation is required to get a full lesson refund credit. If the cancellation is the same day, we will provide a half lesson credit.
There is no refund on no show classes and/or cancellation 4 hours before the scheduled session.
We require one month’s written notice to terminate tutoring services.
We are closed on all statutory holidays and are open by appointment only during school winter breaks and spring breaks.
We are open during the summer months.
