The Tutoring Connection

Unlocking Potential and Celebrating Achievement

The Tutoring Connection is a community resource through the Key Learning Center at Carolina Day School. The program provides a resource to families who have needs for specific academic and school-related support for their children. The Tutoring Connection seeks to identify interested and qualified tutors who have skills to offer these families. The best possible match is provided when “connecting” a tutor with a student. Tutors establish a partnership with the family and the student's school. This partnership allows the parent, student, and tutor to determine the day, time, and public location for tutoring services.

Services Offered

Tutoring services are offered in the Orton-Gillingham based multisensory structured language approach and in academic areas. The Orton-Gillingham tutors have received various levels of training from basic to advanced. The Tutoring Connection also has tutors certified through the Academy of Orton-Gillingham Practitioners and Educators (AOGPE) and our International Multisensory Structured Language Education Council (IMSLEC) accredited training program.
