  • I had a great conversation with the owner initially about our son who is 17. Our son needed SAT prep as well as a tutor for Algebra III. We were hoping for 1-on-1 tutoring for some sessions, but the 1-on-1 turned out to be one tutor and one student in a room filled with other tutors and students, all talking at once. Our son has 3 mild learning differences, dyslexia, ADHD and auditory processing. While in the office to pay our bill, I mentioned to the receptionist that our son had taken one of the SAT prep tests with a lot of other talking & lessons going on in the background, and that this was distracting for him, as he had several learning differences. She immediately asked me to whisper about it. What? I have never been asked to talk about my children's learning disabilities in hushed tones. It was as if that was a taboo subject to discuss in the office, even though there were only two other adults present, and they appeared to be staff. Wow!!! I have raised 4 children, 3 of whom are dyslexic and so am I. I have never been uncomfortable or embarrassed to talk about learning differences. Nor should anyone else. I have raised my children to know themselves, strengths and struggles in all, to advocate for themselves and to understand that having a learning disability does not limit them in anyway!!!! In fact, my kids are capable of anything, and have amazing gifts in the areas of music, art, English (yes!!!), sports, science and technology. I have taught at some of the most amazing and prominent public and private schools, and never have I been "shushed" when it came to openly and honestly asking for what a child needs. If this is a place that is testing children as well, I would definitely look elsewhere! Look for a place that truly understand learning differences, gifts and struggles in all, and are not embarrassed to talk about it. And look for a place where 1-on-1 is just that, in a quite space with few distractions.
