Add-on services

Understanding Your Student's Needs

Data is powerful. At Redwood, we administer reading assessments and dyslexia screeners to help families make important decisions about their child's educational journey or advocate for additional services.

At Redwood's, We Offer Online:

Feifer Assessment of Reading/Dyslexia Screening Form (FAR-SF):

The FAR-SF is a brief assessment designed to identify children at risk for developmental dyslexia by measuring the underlying processes of reading. This assessment will tell you the level of risk your child has of developing dyslexia and if it is high enough to warrant further assessment. It usually takes around 20 - 30 minutes.
Dyslexia and Dyscalculia Screeners

Does online tutoring actually work for kids with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia?

Yes! We've worked with an independent researcher since providing online services (2020), and the results are clear. Online tutoring is just as effective as in-person tutoring on average for our student population. If, after the three-month mark, we determine that online instruction is not working for your child, we will be transparent. It usually takes a bit of time to build rapport and learn the online tutoring structure, so be prepared for an adjustment period.
