The reading program has been Literacy Services of Wisconsin's core mission for nearly 50 years.
The reading program utilizes a phonics-based multi-sensory curriculum that assists a variety of students in achieving their goals. Students are continually evaluated to monitor their progress, including assessments at intake and comparing scores after six months.
The average student attends three hours of one-on-one tutoring a week at our convenient downtown location. Students advance at their own pace and many discover a new confidence in their abilities.
Our specialized mode of "one tutor/one student" has a direct effect on student development. The communication that is built is a lasting bond that inspires and motivates student and tutor alike.
