Vickie is really good at explaining the details while not letting you get lost in them. She helped me figure out a different way of looking at chemical processes. She’s also really patient and gives careful attention to her students. It was a pleasure having her as a tutor!

Our daughter LOVES TLC, and has from her very first session! She absolutely looks forward to each and every session, even getting up early on Saturday mornings, without complaint and eager to go for two hours. Her favorite thing about TLC is the clinicians, and although she is most fond of one in-particular, she's happy to work with everyone. Paisley's favorite activity at TLC is AMPS "because it feels like games, even though I know it isn't, and it helps me with my response speed." From a parents perspective, it's wonderful to see that my child is happy to be participating in this therapy. Paisley's ability to sound out and spell words was so difficult before TLC that she would fight tooth-and-nail to avoid writing, but now she willingly writes and types her homework assignments, and is improving in her ability to spell words that she wouldn't even attempt before. Most importantly, she's able to get her thoughts out on paper without the agony she used to experience while trying to express herself. Her confidence has increased, she tries when she used to give up, and she's having successes in learning that we feared she might never experience - like getting 100% on a Math quiz last week - Hooray! We couldn't feel more blessed and grateful to have found TLC!
