Educational Therapy & Tutoring

At Morrissey-Compton our educational therapists and educational specialists specialize in working with children and adults with learning differences. Traditional tutors focus on current academic content being presented in class, while our specialists use a broader, research-based approach. They are able to remediate foundational skills in reading, written language and mathematics as well as teach specific study skills to address working memory and organizational deficits.

Executive Functioning

Our specialists also provide executive function therapy and coaching tailored to your specific learning profile. When students are struggling with challenges that extend across several subjects in school and into other areas of their life, a tutor simply will not be sufficient.
