About Our Tutors and Tutoring Service
Dr. Stixrud began the Tutoring Service over 15 years ago to provide specalized intervention for students with educational disabilities, after finding through his neuropsychological evaluation practice that these students often were not helped by traditional teaching and tutoring methods. The Service provides tutors who are trained in cutting-edge approaches for remediating academic difficulties associated with learning disabilities. Of equal importance, our tutors focus on students' strengths and work to promotoe resiliance and positive feelings about their ability to learn and succeed.
Our primary objective is to have our students become active, independent learners. We teach strategies developed through special education practices to promote the development of specific skills, thus enhancing school or work performance. Students are taught to generalize strategies to new academic and real-life situations. When appropriate, content from the classroom (e.g. homework assignments) is used to enable students to successfully meet academic demands.
