Lightbulb Learning Center specializes in reading remediation.
Lightbulb Learning Center’s Mission
Lightbulb Learning Center is a Private Tutoring Practice - we serve students in grades K-6. The mission of Lightbulb Literacy is to provide high-quality personalized literacy instruction to developing, struggling, and/or reluctant readers to improve academic success both in and out of the classroom. Lightbulb Literacy uses a multi-sensory, structured literacy approach to strengthen and empower students while building confident lifelong readers.
We offer 1:1 and small group instruction. We will also have a variety of skill-based workshops and drop-in classes. We offer both in-person and virtual services. To learn more about how Lightbulb Literacy can service your child, book a consultation call.
How it works:
-
We require all prospective clients to first have an informal consultation call. This call is about 20 minutes. During this call, we get the opportunity to get to know you and the concerns and/or academic goals of your young learner. We answer any questions you may have regarding our literacy frameworks, session procedures, etc. We share our Lightbulb Literacy Framework and pricing model. Following our call, we send you a link to book your Lightbulb Literacy Diagnostic Assessment to confirm your first 8 sessions.
-
We use a battery of assessment to determine your young learner's level of phonemic/phonological awareness, phonics, vocabulary development and comprehension. We then use this data to develop a literacy treatment plan (academic forecast) based on the next 12 or 16 weeks.
-
Upon the completion of the Lightbulb Literacy Diagnostic Assessment and the development of the Literacy Treatment Plan, we share our report and projected plan for instruction. This can be done via a telemeeting (Zoom) or a recorded version of this can be emailed to you. We also provide you with with a written report and treatment plan.
-
Following our Assessment Report Meeting, you will have the opportunity to schedule your next eight sessions. We typically schedule sessions for the same day and time weekly - this is called a standing appointment. If for any reason you have to reschedule a meeting, directions for doing so can be found in your contract.
About our assessments
Lightbulb Learning Center uses a combination of diagnostic assessments to assess specific skills or components of reading in each of the five following areas of literacy: vocabulary, phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, and comprehension. We use the results from these assessments to inform our instruction and intervention. Following each diagnostic assessment, we develop a literacy treatment plan, highlighting the specific skills and areas of study for the next 12-16 weeks.
We continue to monitor student progress with a series of formative assessments throughout the next 12-16 weeks. We use these ongoing assessments to make sure we are meeting our instructional goals and supporting student learning- we make instructional modifications as necessary according to the data. A mid-term diagnostic assessment is administered every 12-16 weeks. A treatment plan is provided after every diagnostic assessment.
