These programs are explicit, structured teaching methodologies that are proven to help students improve word attack, decoding, comprehension, spelling, fluency, writing, handwriting, and math skills. The Village Tutors focus on continuing, best-practice professional development for our tutors. Our tutors were among the first to be trained in both the Rush Medical/ Neurobehavioral Center's Executive Functions Skills Building Program © and RAVE-O© (Tufts University, Boston).
