Do you need a tutor?

• Is your child falling behind?
• Is your child having difficulty learning with the methods currently being used in the classroom?
• Does your child’s difficulty surprise you?
• Are you concerned that unless your child gets the help he or she needs, and soon, he or she will stop trying to succeed and start hating school?

Good News! Carol S. Fitzpatrick, MS, is taking new students of any age who are struggling with reading.

There are many situations and conditions which affect how well a child learns. The solution to your child’s problem could be as simple as adjusting the learning environment in some way. But many times, it is the result of a learning disability. When properly dealt with, many learning disabilities can be overcome, sometimes with amazing results! For two years in a row, the struggling readers in Carol’s classroom averaged 2 and  1/2 years’ growth in reading, and both years one student made 4 years’ growth. Carol uses the same effective methods in her tutoring.

Carol’s Credentials:

Go to “About Carol” on the website. I have a copy of a recent state background check you may see, and references to be contacted by serious future clients after our initial consultation.

Carol’s Philosophy:

• All children can learn when taught with methods that take into account their individual learning styles and differences.
• As much as possible, learning should be hands-on and enjoyable.
• The more sense that are involved, the stronger the learning experience will be.
• A little success goes a long way!

Services Available:

• Initial consultation (no charge) – Let’s get to know each other and see if Rainbow Readers Tutoring is a good match for you and your family.
• Preliminary testing phase ($150 unless you can provide some standardized testing results from your child’s school) – This phase takes several hours both with your child and in data analysis so Carol can tailor a tutoring plan focused  right to your child’s level of ability and areas of highest need.
• Private one-hour tutoring sessions ($50/hour)
• Group one-hour tutoring sessions if students with compatible needs are available ($35/hour) -  Research shows that students learn just as well and enjoy themselves more when working with peers. Carol never takes more than three students at a time.
• Private parent training sessions ($50/hour)
• Group parent training sessions ($100/hour divided by the number of participants up to 30 with a set fee to cover copying costs of materials to be provided by Carol)
