What is the difference?
1) Intensive:

  • You get the same instructor all four weeks (where possible)
  • 1:1 in a private office/classroom
  • Pre and post assessment reports - in depth assessment specific to our programs with comprehensive explanations of each area of need, measured progress, in depth recommendations for school and home for future intervention and growth.
  • Significant growth with daily repetition

2) Booster:

  • You get the same instructor for 5 days. Multiple weeks might mean different instructors. However, all staff are highly trained and pick up where student left off.
  • 1:1 in a private office/classroom
  • First day check in with a small measurable goal for the week.
  • Final report (or weekly update if the student is returning for multiple weeks) indicating progress toward goal and recommendations for future work.

Intensives:

  • Start June 30 or July 29 (may have some flexibility to do other four-week programs)

Boosters:

  • Start the Monday of every week during the summer.

What makes us different?

  • We assess your child to identify the key foundational gaps in their understanding of math.
  • We develop a plan to fill those gaps.
  • We use research based strategies and procedures to help fill those gaps.
  • We use movement, explicit instruction, repetition, manipulatives, and individualized programming to build confidence and skills.
  • This is not your usual math program! We do not use flashcards and drilling.
  • We build a conceptual understanding of concepts. 
  • We are not relying only on memorization and tricks. We are helping your child have a deep understanding of each math concept.
  • Our math specialists work with your student 1:1 in a private office. Your child has the same instructor for the entire program.
