What our organization offers: 
Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
Fit Learning's research-based approach results in an average growth of 1-2 grade levels after 40 hours of instruction. Programs include homeschool support, reading, math, critical thinking, writing, and kindergarten readiness. Importantly, Fit's unique method works for learners of ALL ages and abilities (including average/gifted/talented students and children with diagnoses such as ADHD, dyslexia, learning disabilities, anxiety, autism, and so on). And, not only are the 1:1 learning sessions remarkably effective, but also they are fun for kids and help boost self-confidence.

Fit Learning's research-based approach yields unparalleled results, and no other tutoring resource in St. Louis has a method as fun or effective. Available here are examples of the types of dramatic academic improvements achieved by Fit learners after their enrollments.

One unique — and exciting — aspect of Fit Learning individualized approach works for all kinds of learners. That includes:

  • Children who are struggling academically in general or with a specific subject area
  • Homeschooled students, or those whose parents are considering homeschooling
  • Learners who aren’t struggling but want to prevent summer slide or skill regression
  • Children with diagnosed learning disabilities (LD), special education needs, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety or a lack of confidence, slow processing speed or a processing disorder, speech/language delays, dyscalculia, or who are on the autism spectrum
  • Pre-K children for school readiness
  • Learners preparing for a private school admission exam
  • Gifted learners seeking further challenge or enrichment

Even beyond the academic benefits, Fit’s core approach – including its multimodal technique, use of explicit instruction, and focus on fluency – is particularly effective at improving learners’ critical thinking and executive functioning skills, including:

  • Planning: the ability to think ahead and organize and prioritize actions necessary to reach a goal
  • Problem-solving: the ability to first identify a problem and then develop a strategy to solve it
  • Working memory: the ability to remember specific short-term memories needed to execute a function or daily task
  • Attention: the ability to focus and recall from short-term memory (closely tied to the skill of working memory)
  • Reasoning: the ability to understand, analyze and think critically about ideas, and then be able to use the information
  • Cognitive flexibility: the ability to think on your feet
