SUMMER PROGRAMS 2009
The Four-week program for students 7 to 10 years old
Four weeks of intensive one-on-one instruction in reading, handwriting, spelling, writing, and mathematics. Reading instruction covers training in phonemic awareness, decoding, fluency, and comprehension. Training in writing is focused on syntax and sentence structure. Math training focuses on concepts, and the language of instruction, place value, memory of basic facts, and basic operations. Children make substantial improvement in the four weeks, often gain as much as one or more years on standardized tests. Invariably, they do not want the session to be over.
Instructors in the program have completed special training to work with children with language-based learning difficulties, and are under the daily supervision of nationally certified master teachers.
Space is limited to eight (8) students.

The Four-week program for students in Middle School and High School (ages 11-14)
Four weeks of intensive instruction in reading, spelling, writing, study skills, and math. Students are taught in small groups. Reading, spelling, and vocabulary instruction includes advanced strategies for decoding, word attack, word recognition, and fluency. Instruction in writing includes grammar and syntax. Included in High School is literary analysis. Learning strategies and study skills instruction is focused on mastery of content subjects, and employs structured procedures which significantly improve comprehension and memory. The math program for the middle school students includes concepts and the language of mathematics, place value, the four basic operations, and fractions, and aims for automaticity in number facts. High School students work on advanced math skills including factors and multiples, solving basic functions, and graphing on the coordinate plan.
Instructors in the program are master teachers, academic therapists who are nationally certified as specialists in teaching students with learning difficulties. Each has an outstanding record in restoring students’ self-confidence and self-esteem.
