Lynn has been an amazing tutor for my son with complex support needs. He has autism, ADHD, anxiety, and Fragile X and we were told by many professionals to just try and have him memorize sight words. However, we wanted him to learn the real way to decode words. Lynn not only had a wealth of knowledge about structured literacy and evidence-based practices for reading instruction, she also presumed competence for our son! She worked with us to design a totally individualized program to teach him how to read. We worked with her remotely over the course of the past 3 years and we are so proud to say our son is able to read text fluently now. My son connected with her so well even via Zoom and he loved to see pictures of her dog and grandchildren:)

Optimal student growth occurs when tutoring is provided in 50-minute sessions two to three times a week. This allows for your child to review previously taught skills, learn new material, and practice the new learning during the tutoring sessions. However, younger students may need to begin with sessions as short as 25 minutes to maintain their focus and enthusiasm.
