In an effort to provide intensive reading instruction to non-enrolled students and adults, The Laureate® Academy opened The Laureate® Learning Centre in the fall of 1999. The Laureate® Learning Centre provides intensive reading sessions utilizing the F.A.S.T. Reading System, a recently-developed reading program based on the most current research in the field of reading.
Students wishing to enter the centre first receive a short diagnostic reading evaluation. This assessment determines their starting point in the reading program. Students then begin a two– to four-week schedule of 90-minute daily instructional sessions. Parents of the students receive instruction on how to reinforce the tutorial lessons with homework each night. This combination of daily intensive tutorials and nightly reviews lead to dramatic improvements in the student’s reading skills.
Parents interested in registering their son or daughter for one of The Laureate® Learning Centre’s reading sessions may contact the centre at (204) 831-8181 or The Laureate® Academy at (204) 831-7107. Tuition for the tutorial session includes a placement assessment, all materials, and pre– and post-testing in reading.
