The Clinic focuses on providing tutorial support and assessments for students in the first through eighth grade who are not benefitting sufficiently from instruction provided by their elementary schools.
Students may have been already identified as having a learning disability or may not have been identified but are perceived to be at risk for unacceptably poor achievement by their families.
Please email us at readingclinic@education.ucsb.edu OR you may call 805-893-7905 to discuss your child’s situation and to make an appointment for an assessment.

Supervised graduate students and professional teachers associated with the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education provide the tutoring.
Students are tutored for 45 minutes two - four times a week during the school year for periods of 10 weeks with appointment times corresponding to the end of the school day.
Each student will receive feedback at the end of each tutoring session and his/her progress will be communicated to parents on a weekly basis.
A formal post assessment and report of a student’s specific gains will be provided at the end of the tutoring period, including recommendations for further support, if necessary.
