All Themba Tutors have either a masters-level or doctoral degree directly related to helping children and adults with learning differences. Indeed, many members of our multidisciplinary team are scholars, who have written and lectured extensively about learning differences. Themba Tutors learning specialists have advanced academic training, and years of teaching experience in the best public and private schools. They understand school culture and curricula and do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. They begin by developing a unique learning profile for each child. With love and patience, they go on to teach him or her the skills needed to maximize their potential. Themba's test-preparation services are similarly guided by this philosophy. We combine thoughtful, directed, interdisciplinary skill instruction, designed to help your child perform to their top potential. And because we're cognizant of the impact psychological pressures can have on learning, we consult with licensed mental health professionals to help address test anxiety and test-day demands. If your child appears to have learning issues but hasn't yet been evaluated, we’ll bring in qualified, caring licensed child and adult evaluators. We characterize our mission this way: supporting parent and child in shifting the perception of learning differences from lifelong challenges, to deeply rewarding, lifelong journeys.
