Summer Tutoring
(Individual and Small Group)
(Begins June 15, 2009)
The Learning Solutions program at Tampa Day School (TDS) has been offering opportunities for small group and one-to-one tutoring during the summer months for the past 40 years! In addition to our Summer Intensive Reading Remediation Program and RIGHT TRACK summer camp for kids with ADHD, we offer developmental writing workshops and math enrichment courses (grades 3-6), individual tutoring, and a readiness course for students entering kindergarten and first grade at TDS (fall 2009).
While some students are working toward mastery to overcome academic challenges, others are striving for enrichment opportunities to strengthen previously learned skills. Our summer courses/tutoring are designed to meet both of those needs.
Available courses, dates/times, and costs are listed below or follow the link for a pdf version including our registration form.
