If I can not learn how you teach, can you teach how I learn?

You may notice that our classes are not organized by traditional grade levels, but rather by age ranges, skill levels, and detailed course descriptions. This approach recognizes that students—particularly those with learning challenges—often function at different levels across subjects. Older students may feel discouraged by being placed in a “lower” grade designation, so we intentionally avoid those labels.

For reading and math courses, tutors will assist in evaluating each student to ensure appropriate placement. Some classes include an approximate grade range to help families discern which options may be a good fit, though placement is ultimately based on individual readiness rather than grade level.

Students without learning challenges are welcome to enroll in our classes. 

Before registering, families should consider the following:

• Our tutorial operates differently from many traditional or popular tutorial models. Grades are optional, and grading policies vary by class. Parents should communicate directly with the tutor to understand expectations for each course.

• While tutors establish achievable goals and monitor student progress, instruction is intentionally paced according to each student’s individual needs. Our emphasis is on mastery and long-term understanding rather than simply completing textbooks or meeting arbitrary benchmarks.

• Our overarching vision is to teach students how to learn and to equip them with the skills necessary for lasting academic and personal success.

• Additionally, students are expected to be independent in using the bathroom, washing their hands, and feeding themselves.
