Because of the customized approach, when used in a kindergarten classroom, most of the kindergartners tested at a 2nd-grade reading level, and often there were 5 or 6 students at a 3rd-grade reading level or higher - in kindergarten!
As testimonials support, this same program is being used for one-on-one tutoring at Learning Works! Tutoring with great success. Students who entered our program as total nonreaders, and were diagnosed as severely dyslexic, made amazing progress in just a few months. We often raise reading scores 6 months to more than a year in only 3 months.
Our secret is a reading program that uses phonetic (fun) "tricks" to make neural connections to the phonemes ("chunks" of sounds that make up words).
Learning Works! offers a variety of services that are customized for your child. Unlike larger, chain tutoring centers, our programs are not "cookie cutter" and are not based upon scripted lessons. Rather than having one teacher work with three children all on different levels, we work one-on-one with each student for a full hour. Every session is designed with your child's particular abilities and needs in mind. We use creative, hands-on techniques and just a touch of humor to make learning fun so that students enjoy the experience.
It is our mission to not only improve children's skills but also to develop their self-esteem and confidence. Positive words and a risk-free, nurturing environment dispel any negativity they may have previously developed and associated with learning. Through this process, the students develop self-motivation and goal setting skills.
Our scientifically created, computerized brain training program provides exercises that develop neural connections to improve cognitive skills such as visual and auditory memory, focused and sustained attention, conceptual reasoning, and visual-spatial relationships. Studies show that these cognitive exercises have significant effect upon children's abilities to learn and, according to published studies, can even raise IQ.
Brain training exercises are especially effective for children with learning disabilities, ADD and ADHD, visual scanning inabilities, slow processing speed, dyslexia and sequencing difficulties, and for children with memory weaknesses. Programs to challenge all children, including the gifted, are also available.
Listen as this mother explains the extraordinary journey her 14-year-old son had with Learning Works! Tutoring, going from a Kindergarten reading level to a 4th-grade level- in under 6 months!
I started Learning Works! Tutoring & Consulting because it is my passion to bring out the learning potential in every student, no matter their circumstance or learning style. After 24 years as a classroom educator, I decided to reach further and began working with as many students and families as I possibly could. Thanks to the technology of virtual classrooms, I now serve students all over the country!
Like you, I am a mother and a grandmother. I enjoy spending as much time with my family as possible, being in nature, and walking my dog. I look forward to discovering what your little learner needs to thrive in the classroom and in their daily lives.

**Learning Works! Tutoring. During 24 years in the classroom, Kathy created a unique reading program that helps learners struggling to read. The program is phonetic with visual "tricks" to make sounding out unfamiliar words easy. This time-proven program has helped many students raise their reading levels from six months to an entire year or more in just a few months.
Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.
After a consultation with the parents to better understand the concerns, I begin the tutoring program by assessing both skills and areas for improvement. I then outline how our program fits your child's learning style. We will communicate after each session so you are aware of the content and methods used so you can reinforce these techniques outside their sessions.
Yes. I have found that with the right set-up and family support, the student does as well, if not better, than many in-person sessions! I suggest a private space with limited distractions for each tutoring session. It also helps to ensure your student has a light, healthy snack beforehand and has access to water throughout the session.
The cost is dependent on the session package that is right for your student and budget. Our packages start at only $30 weekly and increase depending on frequency and duration. We have several payment options available. If funding is a concern, you may consider looking into grants from your state Department of Education, local Foundations, or Community Programs.
Thank you for your interest in Learning Works! Tutoring. I will respond to your email as soon as possible.
