All services can be offered virtually or in-person.
Private Tutoring
One-on-one sessions focus on the learning needs of the individual student. Topics can include reading, math, spelling and writing. Jamie will work as a liaison between home and school to ensure your child’s academic needs are met.
Social Skills Groups
Social skills groups are created based on the needs of the children in the small group and work to address social communication, behavioral, and play based goals through play, multi-sensory activities, and projects.
Small Group Supplemental Learning
This is a "create your own" small group learning opportunity that will aim to supplement the virtual learning content provided by your school. This group would be composed of less than six children of your choice. The frequency of these sessions per week can be changed based on the provided school schedules. At this point we do not know what school will look like at this point so this option can be adjusted as needed.
Kindergarten Readiness
Ready, Set, Kindergarten! is a kindergarten readiness semester-based program for children ages 3-6. Through hands-on exploration, read-alouds, and multi-sensory activities, children will improve their reading and writing skills, develop number sense, and quantitative skills while building social skills to enhance their kindergarten readiness.
