Learning Matters - Tutoring and Assessment Center

As with many great stories of humble beginnings, Learning Matters, Inc. began in 2006 as a conversation between friends. Around a kitchen table, Christie Andrews and Deb Kitchens shared coffee and dreamed of a place where kids, regardless of their parent’s income, could come and receive remediation, instruction and academic mentoring. Today, Learning Matters tirelessly serves the 1-in-5 students impacted by a diverse learning style. Corporate gifts, foundation grants, and individual gifts help us to provide prescriptive-level intervention to students whose families are experiencing economic hardship.

Mission:  Learning Matters exists to help K-12 students with Dyslexia and other learning disabilities reach their academic and human potential by providing equitable access to the highest quality assessment, tutoring, and advocacy.

Vision:  A community where learning disabilities and learning differences are identified early, evidence-based interventions are available, and educational equity exists for all school-aged children.

Academic Tutoring, Assessment, and Advocacy.
