What is The Learning Lab?
The Learning Lab is a place where we rebuild your child’s confidence by molding our teaching style to fit their learning style—not the other way around!
There are no quick fixes or magic pills here. Instead, we prepare children for a lifetime of learning by helping them close the gaps in their academics and rebuild their self-esteem at school.
Why do kids need The Learning Lab?
The Learning Lab is a place where no kid is “lazy,” “bad” or “unmotivated.” Kids underperform at school for a reason. The environment is too strict or doesn’t take learning differences into consideration, and as a result, your child feels unsuccessful at school.
Over time, this takes a toll on a child’s confidence and continues to perpetuate poor performance at school. Your child might start to have negative feelings about school, and those feelings can affect your child’s home life.
At The Learning Lab, we teach kids the way they learn best, and we consider children’s feelings about learning. This breaks that long-term cycle of negative feelings leading to poor performance, allowing your child to break out of their shell and flourish at school!
Who Is
A Candidate For The Learning Lab?
The Learning Lab is for kids who will benefit from an out-of-the box approach when it comes to academics, who require individualized attention to learn successfully, or who need a customized learning plan for after-school, during school or homeschool.
Your child may be a good fit if he or she:
- Has a diagnosis like dyslexia, SLD or attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
- Has trouble with language, literacy or math skills
- Has trouble with focus and attention
- Has trouble sitting still at a desk
- Has trouble writing stories despite being able to tell them verbally
- Has negative feelings about school (says things like “I hate school” or “I’m not smart”)
- Has inconsistent grades and test scores
- Has teachers who say that the child should “pay attention” or “try harder”
From afternoon tutoring to homeschool support, this is how we support children with learning differences.
The Learning Lab Services
I3
LAB
Every child that visits the Learning Lab will udergo an in-depth screening process. We establish the intervention and remediation needed for children with ADHD, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia and more. Our I3 Lab experience will help to assess and address any gaps that a child may be experiencing in reading, writing, and math skills so your struggling learner can pace themselves, process instruction effectively and experience results. We offer personalized learning in 1:1 private tutoring depending on specific needs.
HOMEWORK
LAB
No two kids learn the same way, but traditional schools expect smart kids to keep up despite differences in their learning styles. If you regularly find lost projects and overdue assignments in your child’s backpack, it’s time to stop and think about why.
Ninety percent of kids with dyslexia don’t receive ESE services at school. Kids with other learning challenges, like dyscalculia or ADHD, are also likely to be left behind. Also, schools don’t typically teach the necessary executive functioning skills required to stay organized and plan out the week’s work. The result is a never-ending cycle where kids are too stressed out to complete homework they don’t understand, which triggers more school-related stress when parents or teachers start to inquire about missing assignments.
HOMESCHOOL SUPPORT
Many children struggle with the rigid environment and expectations of a traditional classroom. If your child is a year or more behind academically, they may benefit from one-two years of daily, comprehensive academic remediation to close significant learning gaps. The goal of our homeschool support program is to empower families with the option to make significant academic gains in a supportive and individualized environment. We provide each student with a personalized education plan and guide parents on state compliance as it pertains to homeschooling guidelines in Florida. Our Homeschool Support Program will give your child the confidence to learn in a way that fits their needs, whether that be one-on-one intensive tutoring, small group tutoring and/or supplemental learning software.
