In-Person and Online Tutoring

How It works...

Whether your child is an emerging reader full of curiosity about letters or a developing reader struggling to keep up, Mrs. Phillips gives  them the skills to become an independent and confident learner. After an initial assessment, she'll customize a tutoring plan for your child that is either based on foundational skills or reading intervention. Online tutoring is only offered as an option for tutoring with the Barton Reading and Spelling System.
