Academic Tutoring Program
Far from the typical tutoring program, our state-certified teachers provide highly individualized 1:1 instruction tailored for the unique needs of the neurodiverse learner. Our dynamic approach includes instruction that is direct and explicit, engaging, and most importantly, FUN! Whether your learner needs help with their homework, math, homeschooling or is a developing reader we are here to support their unique style of learning. Our mission is to create lifelong learners and we believe that going the extra mile to develop meaningful connections with our scholars is an essential component to academic success.
What Makes Us Unique?
- All of our tutors are state-certified, licensed special and/or general education teachers of Virginia, most with additional certifications in related specialty areas such as autism and dyslexia.
- We specialize in reading instruction and our methods are grounded in the science of reading. To learn more about the structured literacy approach we use, read this informative article by the International Dyslexia Association. Structured literacy is the most effective way to teach reading and should be endorsed for teaching all learners how to read, not just the struggling reader.
- The Wilson Reading System, an intensive intervention program, is used to support learners in grades 2-12 and adults with language-based learning challenges, such as dyslexia. We have a Certified Wilson Dyslexia Practitioner in our center!
- Beginning with a thorough literacy or math assessment, Inside Out Learners will develop a customized program tailored for the individual's unique learning style.
- We are highly trained and experienced in serving learners with and without common learning differences such as: dyslexia, Aspergers/Level 1 ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorders), anxiety disorders, SPD (sensory processing disorder), and ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).
- We offer flexible schedules for busy families and homeschoolers including a virtual tutoring option.
- We offer tutoring services to learners from ages 4 through adulthood.
- Our teachers make it priority to work closely with families to help promote consistency and open communication among learning environments.
