More Visitors From Schools

In a previous post, we talked about how visiting Langsford is one of the best ways to learn more about us and what we do.

Last week, we had a visit from a group of 3 teachers from a local Catholic school. Our Director Stephen met with them to talk in some depth about Langsford and then they had the opportunity to sit in and observe some actual sessions of clients attending this summer.

One of the teachers had this to say about the experience:

I learned so much about how children learn. It is very evident that you and your staff are committed to helping children succeed.

If you would like to learn more about how Langsford is helping students learn, contact us to schedule a visit.

You Can Learn A Lot By Observing

We are often contacted by educational professionals who want to learn more about Langsford so they know what sort of student may be appropriate for the work we do. These professionals want to be knowledgeable about local resources so they can help any families they come in contact with who may need extra help, or are looking for a boost.

So, what's the best way to learn about Langsford?

How about setting up a visit and learn first-hand what goes on here, by meeting with us, discussing the characteristics of our typical client, and through observing actual sessions?

In other words, see us in action!

Below is a recent email sent to our Director, Stephen McCrocklin, from a local professional who visited a couple of weeks ago:

Stephen,

Thank you for taking so much time out of your day to spend with me. I truly enjoyed all the background information you shared with me about Langsford, as well as all the wealth of information you shared regarding various programs, research, etc. Your knowledge and passion for the field is contagious! As time allows I would love to set up a time to return and observe a session. It is such a blessing to have such a wonderful resource that you, your wife, and your team provide to our community. Thank you, again… :)

Have a blessed day,

Robin D'Aniello

We will soon be packed to the gills with all sorts of students this summer, so if you are an educational professional with some extra time this summer, why not take advantage of your time off to visit with us and learn about Langsford?

Welcome To Our New Blog!

Hello and welcome to the Langsford Learning Acceleration Centers' new blog. We are excited to be able to use this new form of communication! We plan to post information on education and reading and another goal is to give readers a peek inside our centers and the people who work here.

Last night we had our first parent training of 2008. These trainings are offered to parents of current and past clients and the training reviews the strategies for reading, spelling and language comprehension that we teach in sessions.

Parents often tell us how helpful these trainings are because the information they learn helps them understand what is going on in our sessions and makes them better at helping their children at home. We also encourage parents to observe sessions to learn even more about how we are helping their child.

Informed parents are an important part of the team too!
