Our Services

Reading help comes first. Most families come to us because their child is struggling with reading. We help K–8 students with phonics, fluency, comprehension and FAST reading prep, one-on-one or in small groups with bilingual tutors. We also offer math tutoring, homework support and enrichment workshops, all listed below.

Structured Academic Tutoring & Skill Development

At Open Mind Learning & Fine Arts, our academic tutoring sessions provide structured instruction that goes beyond homework completion. We offer focused academic support that combines homework review, skill reinforcement, and personalized tutoring to build lasting academic foundations.

During each session, we start with homework — but we don't just complete assignments and move on. Our tutors take time to review the lessons, explain concepts, and prepare students for the week ahead.

This includes:

  • Practicing spelling and vocabulary words
  • Building reading comprehension skills
  • Strengthening math concepts and problem-solving
  • Completing online assignments with programs like IXL, Quizlet, Savvas, iReady, Reading Plus, Lexia, Imagine Math, and more

After homework is complete, we provide personalized tutoring tailored to each student's academic level while keeping pace with their current schoolwork. This approach helps students feel confident in class while making steady progress toward long-term skill mastery.
