When Should I Seek Services for My Child?

The answer to this question is not one-sized-fits-all and it depends on each child’s needs. My services are best utilized when parents, students and classroom teachers notice discrepancies in certain areas of reading, writing or math. It may mean a low score on a reading assessment, skill-deficits in progress reports, report cards, parent observations and teacher-feedback. It may mean that the time the student, parent or teacher are spending a lot of time on specific areas of need, but not seeing an increase in skills and or student’s ability to apply new skills with consistency.

For those students who have already been diagnosed with learning disabilities or learning challenges through an Individual Education Plan (IEP) or 504 Plan, it may mean additional targeted 1:1 consistent support to build skills using evidenced-based curriculums and programs that give students an opportunity to learn and apply new knowledge through explicit instruction. This approach also allows schools to work on other goal areas in a more focused way.

So whether your child is struggling in reading, writing, math or has a diagnosed learning disability, I offer services (LINK) to best support your child to reach his/her academic potential.
