Much
More Than Tutoring
At
The Learning Curves, our goal is to prepare the
brain for learning by strengthening or developing
the underlying thinking processes that
allow academic skills to flourish.
Students of The Learning Curves find that they spend less
time on homework. They report that they are able to pay
better attention and are more successful in the classroom.
The number one comment heard is that students feel more
confident in their abilities to do their work independently.
"His greatest improvement this past year I think
has been his concentration. He can stay focused for longer
periods of time, therefore, his comprehension (when listening)
has improved, and he's able to accomplish more in a shorter
amount of time with fewer disruptions from himself. ALSO,
he is applying skills that he has learned independently..."
~Testimonial from a Gettysburg parent of a dyslexic
3rd grader
The services offered at The Learning Curves include programs
appropriate for a wide variety of ages and learning issues,
from those labeled learning disabled or dyslexic to others
who simply struggle with school. Solutions to dyslexia,
learning disabilities and attention problems are offered.
A range of cognitive learning therapies address the underlying
reasons students struggle.
Work is one-on-one with students and focuses on strengthening
those skills needed for independent, academic successes.
The needs of students vary greatly, and appropriate programs
are matched to the individual’s learning needs.
These needs are evaluated for FREE
to determine the most appropriate program recommendation.
Many programs include work at home with parents. Parental
assistance increases intensity and effectiveness while
decreasing expenses.
