Tutors are in demand!
Lifelong Literacy has grown from a one-person, part-time tutoring business to a full time, 7-person tutoring team in just a few short years. Q. What has caused this success? A. High quality systems and a low-variance approach. We live in times where demand for tutoring is at an all-time high. We have a responsibility to make the delivery of extra support for struggling children the highest quality it can be. If you are considering taking up tutoring, this course will tell you what you need to know in order to deliver high quality Tier 2 and Tier 3 intervention. Lyn would like to share her tips for successful tutoring sessions both online and face to face. All activities are aligned with the Science of Reading and the Science of Learning.
