A+ Tutoring Programs 1-8

Reading Grades 1-8
Aardvarks Accelerated English program Grades 1-8 is specifically designed to build and integrate core literacy skills to give you the A+ Advantage and fast track your reading power. The foundation of our literacy program is THRASS Phonics which provides younger students and ESL learners a logical system to recognize the 40+ sounds of English (phonemes), the spelling combinations (graphemes) and apply these to decoding text in reading. As the student masters the correct sound system of English and the grapheme combinations (digraphs, trigraphs) reading skills improve dramatically in a short period of time. Once THRASS Phonics is mastered, Aardvark Instructors can really begin to accelerate younger students & ESL learners literacy skills in English because we have built the core foundation that strengthens students reading and writing ability. In fact, younger students soon realize that their English has improved and develop a positive cycle of confidence, interest and readiness to learn at school. |
Special Education: Gifted and mildly exceptional learners
We provide special education services and accommodation strategies in English, Math and ESL for those students that have been identified as gifted or mildly exceptional learners.

Math Grades 1-8
Aardvark focus on building Literacy and core Math skills during our tutoring sessions with younger learners. As younger students are able to fully integrate their literacy skills into Math sessions we can ensure that the concepts covered at school (number values, multiplication, division, geometry, spatial relationships, algebra) are reinforced during their Tutoring and Mentoring sessions with Aardvark Instructors. At Aardvark each student receives the individual attention and quality of instruction that younger students require to fast track their Math skills through our Accelerated Math program. |
