Where do the sessions take place?

Across the Washington metropolitan area, we have instructional sessions currently offered in the following areas: Fairfax County, Arlington County, the City of Alexandria, Georgetown, Loudon County, and Montgomery County, MD. For the safety of our specialists and educators, we work with students in public libraries, schools, or out of the Literacy Illuminated office. Virtual learning is offered, when it is appropriate for the student.

How many sessions per week is recommended?

The number of support sessions we offer can range from once-a-week to three times a week, depending on the student's needs and preferences. Literacy Illuminated recommends starting with two sessions per week. During sessions, children receive not only best-practices in their academic support, they also learns valuable strategies that they can then apply to their classwork. Our student-centered approach equips students with the tools that they need to excel outside of our sessions.

Do you offer specialist referrals?

Yes, we work cooperatively with other providers to find a comprehensive system of support. Having worked in school settings for twenty years, I am able to ensure that your child finds the appropriate scaffolds that they need in order to make noticeable academic progress.
