Our Tutoring Method
At the heart of all our tutorials is personal attention to boost skills, confidence, and positive motivation of our eager young students. LLE provides a replicable, sustainable tutorial by training and working alongside community organizations to provide highly effective reading instruction in a personal setting.
Giving Baltimore City Youth Access to State of the art instruction
LLE's tutorials are a kid-friendly, streamlined adaption of the highly successful Orton-Gillingham tutorial used in primier programs including St. Paul's Schools, Jemicy School, Friends School, Cathedral School, as well as in other prestigious programs nationwide.
This multi-sensory methodology is a robust application of the National Reading Panel of recommendations which calls for explicit instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and reading comprehension.
