The Assessment
To determine where the student is at in their learning journey, pinpointing their specific individual strengths and/or weaknesses, we administer the assessment called Woodcock-Johnson IV Tests of Cognitive Abilities and Achievement. This assessment is a one-to-one setting to maximise confidentiality and minimise distractions.
Following the assessment, a comprehensive and independent report describes a student’s current learning profile and provides recommendations to parents and teachers.
It also provides supporting evidence for school applications to NZQA on behalf of a student for NCEA special assessment conditions, such as for a Reader -Writer.
Comprehensive Assessment: $850
The Lessons
The assessment report pinpoints the specific individual strengths and/or weaknesses of the student providing a comprehensive guide.
A learning plan is created, tailoring one-to-one lessons to the specific needs of the student as identified in the assessment report.
We match the student with a teacher, who will ensure that there is a safe environment for learning.
Lessons are arranged between the parent and teacher to be taken at a suitable time and place for the student.
Lessons: $65 per hour
In specific circumstances, some funding assistance may be available.
