Our Approach

Our 1:1 lessons are designed to strengthen your child’s literacy, executive functioning skills, and lifelong learning strategies. With a warm, structured approach and proven methods, we partner with families to unlock each child’s true potential.

Our approach is playful yet structured. 

  • We always begin with a game and a quick check-in to start the session on the right foot. Each lesson reviews what we learned previously, introduces a new concept or strategy, and offers plenty of practice. Movement breaks are added as needed, and we end every session with a game — and hopefully a smile too!

Our approach is individualized 

  • Each lesson is built around your child’s individual needs — not their age or grade level. We meet them exactly where they are each day. Some days they’ll be eager and focused, and we’ll build on that momentum. Other days they may resist reading or writing, and we’ll adjust and meet them there too.

  • Lessons are shaped by both ability and interest. If they love Pokémon, we might clap out syllables from card names. If hockey excites them, we’ll read words from NHL Spot-It. And if they adore sparkles and pink, we’ll weave those into reading and spelling activities.

Every lesson is rooted in evidence-based techniques

  • With over 20+ years of experience working with all ages and abilities, we have the know-how to teach within each child’s ‘zone of proximal development’, also known as ‘the sweet spot’. This means your child will learn and grow in each and every lesson.
