Superior Tutoring Services uses the Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing Program (LiPS®).
This method allows children to focus on the actions of the lip, tongue and teeth for sound production. It
is designed to develop phonemic awareness, reading and spelling. Research has shown it to be the best predictor of success in learning to read
and spell. This program is used specifically for children who lack the phonemic awareness to begin the Barton Reading and Spelling Program. LiPS® is
designed to appropriately teach these children to learn from
a concrete level with manipulatives and visual cues to an abstract level of self-correction. http://www.lindamoodbell.com/

Superior Tutoring Services utilizes
the Making Math Real program for math tutoring. This is a fun, hands-on method of learning
math that integrates key cognitive development such as symbol imaging, detail analysis, and sequential processing, within
every lesson and activity. Students who struggle with math do not lack the intelligence or the motivation to be successful.
Typically, they lack the underlying development that supports the acquisition of the basic tools to do math. www.makingmathreal.org
