Other Tutoring Services
Dyslexia Screening Assessment
Comprehensive assessment to determine if you or your chlld are showing signs of Dyslexia. This assessment is recommended by the Australian Dyslexia Association. Tests for strengths and weaknesses in phonological awareness and phonemic awareness for reading and spelling in English. Includes written report. May be administered over two, one hour sessions or one two hour session. This does not diagnose Dyslexia.
Functional Assessment
All students beginning tutoring with us will have an initial functtional assessment in either English or Maths. This assessment is designed to reveal gaps in your child's knowledge and is used to help us to design a plan specific to your child's indiviuals needs. If your child needs both English and Maths tuition, they will need an assessment in both subjects.
Letter or Reports
At times schools or other health providers will require official letters or reports of progress. Please be aware that these documents are highly detailed and take time to write. Reports will be charged at an hourly rate.

Our senior tutor can join parents in meetings at school or with other health professionals. we can assist adults wishing to study or discuss inclusive practices with employers and join them in meetings to advocate for needs.
