Loyola Clinical Centers
For reading, the program from which we have seen the best outcomes is the tutoring through the Loyola Clinical Centers. One on one and small group tutoring are available and priced on sliding scale depending on parental income levels. LCC also offers an excellent reading focused summer program. If parents are interested in the summer program, please let them know that enrollment starts in February. They need to enroll early in order to secure a spot in the program.
