Frequently Asked Questions
Who is literacy tutoring for?
Our specialty is reading and writing instruction for students in Grades 3–12, including diverse learners who need individualized support.
Do you support older students with foundational reading needs?
Yes. Phonics, decoding, accuracy, and fluency intervention can be part of an individualized plan for older students who need foundational support.
What does tutoring look like?
EduThrive Literacy offers 25-minute one-on-one Private Literacy Coaching or 45-minute Small-Group Literacy Lab sessions. Groups require 3–5 enrolled learners with compatible learning needs and skill levels. Both pathways provide assessment-informed reading and writing instruction, individual goals, progress monitoring, and family communication.
Is virtual instruction more than homework help?
Yes. Intentional virtual instruction uses meaningful texts, discussion, guided practice, and feedback to develop literacy skills beyond simply completing homework.
How do you monitor progress?
We use assessments and student work to identify strengths, monitor skill development, adjust instruction, and communicate progress with families.
What does a 12-week program cost?
Private Literacy Coaching: Growth $675, Accelerate $1,275, Thrive $1,875 USD. Small-Group Literacy Lab: Growth $495, Accelerate $855, Thrive $1,155 USD per learner. Growth includes 12 sessions, Accelerate 24, and Thrive 36. Each program includes the $75 initial literacy assessment and 12 instructional weeks. You are enrolling in a defined program with a fixed number of sessions—not unlimited lessons in a calendar month.
What is included beyond tutoring sessions?
Both pathways include an initial literacy assessment, targeted individual literacy goals, structured reading and writing instruction, needs-informed planning, ongoing progress monitoring, family progress updates, and an individual end-of-program progress report. Group instruction is differentiated around compatible skill needs.
How do we choose a tutoring package?
Start with a free Learning Check-In to discuss your child’s needs. Growth, Accelerate, and Thrive offer one, two, or three sessions each week over 12 instructional weeks. Choose 25-minute private coaching or 45-minute small-group instruction. Groups require at least three enrolled learners and accept no more than five. Assessment results and your student’s needs guide program placement.
Do you offer flexible payment options?
Yes. Private Literacy Coaching (Growth / Accelerate / Thrive): every four weeks $200 / $400 / $600; every two weeks $100 / $200 / $300; weekly $50 / $100 / $150. Small-Group Literacy Lab (Growth / Accelerate / Thrive): every four weeks $140 / $260 / $360; every two weeks $70 / $130 / $180; weekly $35 / $65 / $90 per learner. Choose 3 tutoring payments every four weeks, 6 every two weeks, or 12 weekly payments, with no added financing surcharges. Installment plans require the $75 assessment fee at enrollment and authorized automatic payments. Your first tutoring installment is due before the first session. We share exact amounts and charge dates before you authorize autopay; payments stop once your program installments are complete. A new program requires a new agreement.
Is there a discount for paying in full?
Yes. Paying in full saves 5% on tuition only, excluding the $75 assessment. Discounted totals including the assessment: Private Literacy Coaching: Growth $645, Accelerate $1,215, Thrive $1,785 USD. Small-Group Literacy Lab: Growth $474, Accelerate $816, Thrive $1,101 USD per learner. This discount does not apply to installment payments.
How do we enroll?
Begin with a free 15-minute Learning Check-In to discuss your student’s needs and program fit. Together, we select a program and payment option. You then review and sign the enrollment agreement and, for installments, the autopay authorization. Pay in full or submit the $75 assessment fee and authorize installments. After the assessment, you receive instructional priorities and begin tutoring with weekly updates and supplemental practice.
What happens with holidays, missed sessions, or early withdrawal?
Scheduling, holiday closures, missed-session makeups, rescheduling, and early withdrawal are governed by your signed enrollment agreement. The initial assessment fee is nonrefundable once the assessment has been completed, subject to applicable law and the final enrollment agreement. We review these details with you before enrollment.
Is the Learning Check-In really free?
Yes. It is a free 15-minute conversation to discuss your learner’s strengths, challenges, and possible next steps, with no obligation to enroll.
