You’ve Watched Your Child Struggle Long Enough
You see the intelligence in their eyes. You know how creative, curious, and capable they are. But watching them wrestle with tasks that seem to come easily to other children—reading, writing, staying focused, organizing their thoughts—breaks your heart a little more each day.
There’s a better way forward. And it starts here.
Your Child Isn’t Broken—Their Brain Just Works Differently
If you’re here, you’ve probably heard the term “neurodivergent” before. But what does it really mean for your child?
Neurodiversity simply means that human brains are naturally wired in different ways. Some brains process information through words and linear thinking. Others—like your child’s—process the world through pictures, patterns, spatial relationships, and creative connections. Neither way is better or worse. They’re just different.
Your child isn’t struggling because they’re not smart enough or not trying hard enough. They’re struggling because most traditional teaching methods weren’t designed for the way their brilliant brain actually works.
At Learning Tools, we specialize in working with children whose minds work differently:
- Dyslexia (reading and spelling challenges)
- Dysgraphia (writing difficulties)
- Dyscalculia (math struggles)
- Dyspraxia (coordination and motor planning)
- Autism Spectrum (ASD)
- ADHD and attention challenges
- Executive functioning difficulties
These aren’t labels that limit your child. They’re simply descriptions that help us understand how to unlock their natural abilities.
A Completely Different Approach—Because Your Child Deserves Better Than “Try Harder”
You’ve probably already tried tutoring. Maybe flashcards. Computer programs. Worksheets. More practice. More repetition. More of the same thing that wasn’t working in the first place.
We know. Because the parents who find us have usually tried everything else first.
Here’s what makes the Davis® Methods different:
The Davis® Methods meet your child exactly where they are—and work with their natural learning style instead of against it. These programs were specifically created for learners who think in pictures, who need to understand the why behind concepts, and who learn best through hands-on exploration.
What this looks like in practice:
- Gentle and no-pressure — We create a safe space where confusion is welcomed, not punished. Your child will never feel “stupid” or “slow” in our sessions.
- Hands-on and three-dimensional — Instead of staring at worksheets, your child will use clay, movement, and creative activities to build deep understanding of concepts that have felt slippery and confusing.
- Matches their learning style — Picture-thinkers need to see and experience concepts. We make abstract ideas concrete and tangible.
- Creative and engaging — Learning should feel like discovery, not drudgery. We tap into your child’s natural curiosity and creativity.
What we don’t do:
We don’t use drill exercises, repetitive worksheets, or computer-based programs. If those approaches worked for your child, you wouldn’t be here. We honor that—and we do something completely different.
What Every Program Includes—Because You’re Part of This Journey Too
When you choose Learning Tools, you’re not just enrolling your child in a program. You’re joining a partnership focused on your child’s success.
Every program includes:
One-to-One Facilitation
Your child works directly with a trained Davis® facilitator in personalized sessions designed specifically for their needs, learning style, and goals. No group classes. No one-size-fits-all curriculum. Just focused, individualized attention.
Support and Training for Your Family
You know your child best. We’ll train you, and any tutors or teachers involved in your child’s education, so you can support their progress at home and at school. You’ll learn the same tools and techniques we use, so you can help your child practice and reinforce their new skills in everyday life.
All Necessary Take-Home Materials
Your child will leave with everything they need to continue their progress: clay for creating concept mastery models, practice materials, and clear instructions for follow-up activities. Learning doesn’t stop when the session ends—and we make sure you have everything you need to support ongoing growth.
What Your Child Will Gain—The Skills That Change Everything
In every program at Learning Tools, your child will learn powerful tools that go far beyond reading, writing, or math. These are life skills that will serve them for years to come.
Your child will learn to:
- Focus their attention when they need to, instead of feeling scattered and overwhelmed
- Control their energy levels so they can stay calm and engaged
- Manage stress and confusion instead of shutting down or acting out
- Build genuine confidence based on real understanding and mastery
- Find motivation that comes from within, not from external pressure
These tools empower your child to meet their own goals—whether that’s reading their first chapter book, writing a story, solving math problems, or simply feeling more comfortable and confident in the classroom.
Most importantly, these skills help your child participate more fully in life. Not just school life—but friendships, family activities, hobbies, and all the experiences that make childhood rich and joyful.
We Understand Your Child’s Unique Challenges
Every child’s journey is different. That’s why we offer specialized programs tailored to the specific challenges your child faces:
Learning and Literacy:
Dyslexia (reading and spelling)
Dysgraphia (writing and written expression)
Dyscalculia (math concepts and calculation)
Coordination and Motor Skills:
Dyspraxia (motor planning and coordination)
Attention and Focus:
ADHD and attention difficulties
Executive functioning challenges (organization, planning, time management)
Social and Sensory:
Autism Spectrum (ASD)
No matter which challenges your child faces—or if they’re dealing with more than one—we have the experience and tools to help them thrive.
See What’s Possible
“Learning Tools changed our lives. My child’s life was changed for the better after our sessions with Sophia. Every lesson reorganizes a concept that the brain can use more readily. We are amazed and relieved to be seeing all grades in the 80% and higher range for the first time ever.”
— Esther, mom of a 7th grader
