Our Services
Our tutors are passionate, gifted educators. Each member of staff is degreed in education or speech therapy, and impeccably trained in remedial strategies. Our teachers understand the gift of a highly individualized setting for building student confidence. Each day, they uphold their own standards for excellence with compassion, flexibility, and expertise.
Tutors take meticulous notes during sessions and save the last five minutes of their hour to have a conversation with parents/guardians. |
Lindner Tutoring is proud to accommodate a wide spectrum of schedule intensities. Students are required to be tutored for a minimum of two 55-minute sessions per week, and can be scheduled up to over 20 hours per week.
Even before you enroll in Lindner Learning Center, the Lindner staff spends ample time at no charge to you making sure that Lindner will be the best fit for your child. We will meet with you in person or over the phone to begin developing a customized program.

It is our true desire to have every individual that comes into contact with LLC to feel enriched by the experience.
What a joy to see the quality of life expand! Traditional schooling can move along so quickly. On top of this, the basic knowledge of a student can be compromised by a learning difference, poor health or trauma. LLC feels the imperative to take a student’s knowledge back to what the student knows automatically and well. We then build upon that secured knowledge with methodology and personalization. Together we work to springboard the student back to meeting daily academic demands.
|
We view each student holistically, welcoming contact with parents, medical professionals, and teachers that are all working for the well-being and success of the child. Every person involved is treated in a gentle and dignified manner. That said, pre- and post-assessments are not a part of our company. Should further data be required, we send our students to the referring professional for a mini evaluation of skill. Given we are a referral-based business, if the child does not reflect post-testing improvement, Lindner naturally loses that specialist’s referrals. Now THAT is called accountability!

Tutoring Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does your center compare to other tutoring options?
We know we just MAY be biased, but several options set us apart (and above!) other tutorial services. We hand-select and thoroughly train and mentor our amazing teachers. We utilize preferred methodologies to address specific learning weaknesses, YET TOO, our program allows for utilization of several techniques so as we learn how your child best learns, we can flex programs and presentation for optimal growth and success!
Is one weekly session an option?
We do require a minimum twice weekly sessions. Mondays are scheduled with Wednesdays and Tuesdays are scheduled with Thursdays. Friday hours are available from 8:00-3:00. Students can attend 2-5 days a week depending on learning profile and preference. Sessions are 55 minutes each, and can be scheduled consecutively if a more intensive presentation is needed. It is a strong recommendation, as academic stressors are eliminated, to utilize our 9-week summer academy for a more intensive presentation (increasing hours/week).
Do I need private remediation for my student if he/she is receiving services at school?
Many of our students receive support services throughout his/her school day, however require more intensive remediation outside of what the school is able to offer. We are committed to a partnership with your child's school to provide a holistic spectrum of educational support and remediation.
Do you offer evaluations?
We do not. Many of our families are referred to us after a full battery of psycho-educational testing. We utilize that data to develop the best plan for success! We LOVE having the outside accountability of our referring specialists whom see us advancing student's learning! Should you not have testing, we often can determine initial goals via parental/teacher feedback and observations. . . and certainly can recommend specific psychologists should further data be helpful.
How do we measure progress/success?
Our teachers keep meticulous session notes and many of our techniques are sequential and "trackable" in nature. Too, we love that parents know their student is progressing because they are reading (or writing or spelling or calculating) with better success and efficiency! We LOVE changing the quality of life for students!
How long are students typically in your program?
Of COURSE many factors determine duration of tutoring. On average students are with us for approximately one and a half years (2-4 hours/week for remediation). That said, we have some students with us a bit shorter in duration and many families that continue on for academic support!
How do cancellations work?
We do allow students to reschedule one week's worth of sessions each term (Spring, Summer and Fall) if the cancellation is received prior to 7:00 a.m. the morning of the scheduled session. The office can facilitate those scheduling changes.
Why do you only have one location?
We are extremely relational and highly customized in everything we do. This could only happen in a small, balanced teacher to one student ratio, and may help explain our decision to keep LLC small.
Do you have licensed teachers on staff?
Yes. With the exception of an occasional staff member who specializes in a specific subject area, our staff is composed of fully-licensed teachers who are trained in working with students who have learning differences. Each tutor in our school program has served an internship in our evening tutoring program and is fully aware of the needs of students with learning differences.
Do you assign homework?
No. One of the benefits of this program is that we have a no homework policy.
