QWERTY’s experts are available to consult regarding a wide variety of learning and education issues.  Our learning specialists can help you understand and clarify the important factors that influence your educational goals.

Sample Areas of Consultation

When a student is struggling with any aspect of school performance, a consultation may help outline variables that are contributing to the difficulty and suggest resources and possible solutions.

When a student and parents are having difficulty resolving homework issues at home, a consultation can help determine relevant factors and lead to the development of strategies for remediation or accommodation.

When a family is considering a change in school placement, a consultation may help the family set priorities and evaluate relevant factors on which the decision can be made.

A review of prior evaluations may shed new light on that information or clarify questions that the evaluation may have raised.

Communication with classroom teachers is done upon request of the parent, student, or teacher. As much as possible however, students are expected and helped to be the central communicators. Teachers and other school staff are typically consulted during the course of formal evaluation.

Attendance at parent-teacher conferences by the tutor or evaluator can help share and expand mutual understanding of the student and can facilitate when a parent finds communication with the school challenging.

In-Service presentations to school staff or parent groups can address a wide variety of topics related to learning.
