All of Our Programs Use a Multi-Sensory Approach That Greatly Improves Visual and Auditory Processing Speed, Working Memory, Executive Functioning, Confidence, and Perseverance
-
Your child has been diagnosed with ADHD, a processing disorder, a learning disability or learning difference, dyslexia, autism, anxiety, special education needs, or any other condition that makes schoolwork especially challenging.
-
Your learner does not have a diagnosis but is struggling to learn new academic skills because they require more intensive, customized support than their school can provide.
-
You fear your student is losing their love of learning because they are struggling in school and their self-esteem is suffering.
-
Your learner experiences anxiety or stress that has become a barrier to achieving their academic potential.
-
You suspect your child would benefit from executive function coaching for help in areas such as problem solving, reasoning, planning, working memory, and attention.

Who Benefits from Special Needs Tutoring at Fit Learning in St. Louis?
Fit’s research-based approach is grade-level agnostic, and so we can meet the learning pace and unique needs of all students, including those with (and without) special needs. Our programming works well for students of all levels — gifted, average, and struggling. This includes:
- Children with or without a diagnosis such as ADHD, slow processing speed, speech delays, dyslexia, and learning disabilities
- Students whose grades have started slipping and who, compared to their peers, are having a harder time learning and retaining information
- Learners who seem increasingly disengaged or “tuned out” with what’s going on at school
- Students who get good grades but whose problem-solving skills could be strengthened, or who could benefit from executive function coaching
- Children experiencing low self-confidence due to their lack of success in school
Why Is Fit Learning’s Individualized Tutoring So Effective for Students with Learning Differences?
Fit’s precision teaching approach is simply a game-changer for kids with special needs. It’s all about meeting your child where they are, keeping it positive, and helping them grow in a way that works best for them. Here’s why it’s so impactful:
At Fit Learning, we move at your child’s pace.
Some kids need more time to grasp, or attain fluency, in certain concepts, while others might excel in specific areas. With Fit’s one-on-one tutoring, we slow things down or speed them up to match your child’s learning needs. And through our multisensory method, learners practice seeing, hearing, doing, moving, and writing. This keeps frustration at bay and makes learning fun again.
Fit’s method targets specific skills, making its special needs tutoring effective and efficient.
Each Fit enrollment kicks off with a comprehensive assessment to pinpoint specific skill deficits. So, whether your child is struggling with reading comprehension, math, or written communication, our systematic approach enables us to focus on those exact skills that are problematic. After mastering the core (or component) skills, we move on to cover more complex areas. So, the material is appropriately challenging, and students retain what they’ve learned. In short, we work to close learning gaps and build a solid foundation for success.
At Fit, we support and celebrate special needs learners.
Learning can be tough, especially if your child feels overwhelmed or discouraged. At Fit, we create a safe space where learners feel supported and celebrated for their progress, no matter how small. Our certified learning coaches work hard to motivate your child through praise. And, the ever-popular prize tower doesn’t hurt either!
Fit Learning minimizes distractions that make it hard for kids to learn.
In a busy classroom, it’s easy for kids to get lost in the shuffle. But with Fit’s one-on-one attention, your child stays focused and engaged. This makes it easier to tackle challenges head-on. At Fit, the instruction is intensive — in a good way — and the interactive sessions fly by quickly. There’s no time to be bored.
At Fit Learning, we build confidence in kids of all skill levels.
One of the biggest benefits of Fit’s individualized tutoring is how it boosts your child’s confidence. By celebrating students’ progress and helping them master skills, we show them that they can succeed—and that confidence spills over into other areas of their life.
If you’re looking for effective tutoring that’s tailored specifically to your child’s individual needs, Fit Learning might be exactly what you’re searching for. It’s all about giving students the tools, strategies, and support they need to thrive—in learning and in life.
