Built from an assessment

Every program starts from your child's own results, not a grade-level workbook.

Fluency, not just accuracy

Skills are practiced until they're accurate and fast, so they stick and carry over.

Measured every session

Precision teaching charts every response, so instruction adjusts in real time.

No homework assigned

All the practice happens in sessions, so family time stays family time.

Frequently asked questions about Fit programs

How do I know which Fit program my child needs?

Every child starts with a 2–4 hour skills assessment. The results show exactly which skills are strong and which need work, and our director or clinical director recommends the right program or combination of programs in a results meeting.

Do we have to enroll after the assessment?

No. Enrollment is optional. You'll receive a multi-page skills report and recommendations either way.

How often are sessions, and how long is a program?

Sessions are 50 minutes, one-on-one, 3–5 times a week. A typical 50-hour enrollment takes about 13–17 weeks, with a reassessment between hours 40 and 50.

Can my child do more than one program?
