Dr. Conca's Learning Solutions
Who We Help
Dr. Conca offers intervention tutoring to children who struggle in reading and literacy. Dr. Conca will plan, deliver and evaluate instruction herself. She has expertise in all components of reading – both learning to read and reading to learn.
Grades 1-3
In grades 1 through 3, the goal is learning to read – “to crack the code.” Students learn letter names, phonics, and how to decode and recognize words. Students who master these early skills are on the path to becoming fluent readers: they don’t need to spend lots of time figuring out words, and are free to focus on to making sense of what they read.


Grades 4-Adult
Beginning in grade 4, reading expectations shift. The goal is reading to learn; students read books and digital text in social studies, science, and math. They acquire new information and also develop important thinking skills.
Students and adults with reading difficulties often require assistance in several components of reading. Literacy Learning Solutions offer intervention tutoring in Reading Foundations, Reading Comprehension, Academic Learning and Executive Function.
​
Securing the right instruction, which targets essential skills, depends on an accurate diagnosis and an instructor who knows reading development. Dr. Conca uses multiple sources of information to decide what to teach. When needed, Literacy Learning Solutions, LLC offers reading assessments to further pinpoint needs and parent coaching to provide just the right amount of at-home support.
