The Reading Clinic will offer two parent workshops during the month of October at each of its clinic locations. Space is limited for these workshops so please register early.
When my son entered third grade he was reading at a first grade level. After just six weeks of tutoring at The Reading Clinic, he was up to grade level. I couldn't believe how easy it was for him to get, and how much he enjoyed the whole process.
-Cooper Raphael, Mother
The Reading Clinic has instilled confidence in several of my students. Children in my class have graduated from the clinic and actually taught some reading in the classroom. It's similar to giving a child glasses to read. It can make a world of difference! -Aileen Carew, 2nd Grade Teacher
After six weeks of reading tutoring, the results were miraculous. Not only could he read, he wanted to read. The LiPS® Program addressed Spencer's particular learning needs and gave him the tools necessary to become a good reader. The Reading Clinic completely transformed him from a boy who was becoming withdrawn and increasingly frustrated with school, to a boy who is now confident, happy, and enthusiastic about learning. This past summer, Spencer won third place in a writing contest.
-Debra Maddox, Mother/Educational Consultant
For the first time in my life something in school is coming naturally. It's easier for me to follow lectures, understand key concepts and complete my homework. I can concentrate and understand the main idea. On the October SATs I even felt the reading comprehension part was sort of... well... fun. I no longer dread reading but actually find it entertaining. -Jessica Lindsay, Stanford University graduate
Welcome!
Since 1997, The Reading Clinic has offered one-to-one tutoring in reading, spelling, writing, language comprehension and math. Using research-based, multi-sensory programs, The Reading Clinic focuses on enhanced academic performance and self-esteem. We provide students with a safe and accepting environment, engaging them in an ongoing process of discovery. In the dialogue-based format, students are better able to follow directions, stay on task, take more risks, complete assignments, and feel good about themselves.
The Reading Clinic identifies a student's basic needs and creates a tailored solution. The results are measurable, significant and most importantly, last a lifetime.
