When and Where Does Tutoring Take Place?
Tutoring consists of two 50-minute sessions per week—either on Monday & Wednesday or Tuesday & Thursday. Sessions are held at our office, and there is a standard fee for each session with semi-monthly billing.
The twice-per-week tutoring schedule has been proven to help students understand topics and retain information, whereas once-per-week just isn’t enough to make continual progress.
Educational Coaching
St. Louis LDA uses one-on-one coaching for high school juniors and seniors, as well as college students. The purpose is to provide strategies for how to successfully complete assignments and manage the course load for upper high school and college. Students start by coming twice a week and then may taper off to coming once a week or even twice a month to maintain the skills learned. Our one-on-one programs are all individualized to the learning styles of each student. All our tutors are experienced educators with at least a masters degree and certification in special education. Our tutors have over 100 years of combined experience as educators.
“My daughter advocates better for herself and participates in class more due to more confidence. She is having success in math, where her LD is and overall success in her classes.”
“At college my son would invariably get a B in one class and flunk the other class. He had no idea how to talk to his professors or figure out if he really understood the assignment. He has made great progress in recognizing that he really never understands the assignment and he must always clarify with his instructors. He did very well this semester. He got three As.”
“He went from hating school to a straight A student – no more frustration.”
