Whether you're a parent, an adult seeking enrollment, or interested in joining the Pivotal Academy team, your first step is an intake session with a Pivotal Academy Director. During this meet and greet, we'll assess your needs and offer guidance on the next steps. We look forward to meeting you in person!
Our Comprehensive Skills Assessment evaluates your child's current fluency across a wide range of essential core skills that are critical for long-term academic success. Based on this assessment, we design a tailored program to develop true proficiency in the core skills identified as below our recommended levels.
In our sessions, your child engages in dynamic, goal-oriented, one-on-one instructional interactions with a Pivotal Academy Coach, high energy and encouraging atmosphere. Each child's learning program is tailored to their individual needs, determined by our Comprehensive Skills Assessment. Our core curriculum includes Pivotal Academy Programs in Writing, Math, and Reading.
The Pivotal Academy Learning Method aims to develop your child's fluency, including rapid processing speed and true mastery. This "cognitive fitness training" enhances memory, boosts confidence, reduces distractions and fatigue, and enhances learning agility. Our method consistently achieves 1 year's growth in 6 months or less.
The core reading program includes basic prerequisites such as print awareness, phonemic awareness through auditory blending and segmenting, and the alphabetic principle. Basic foundations in decoding are emphasized, including sound-symbol correspondence, textual blending and segmenting strategies, and reading fluency.
The core mathematics program includes mastery of counting and the numerical system; math facts and calculation skills; math concepts; and math vocabulary. To master the language of speaking and writing about math, we use the retelling methods we employ when teaching reading. We also teach math thinking, reasoning, and problem solving skills
The core writing program includes mastery of “rubrics” – features and steps that define many different genres, including descriptive, narrative, explanatory and persuasive writing styles. Students master key component skills in handwriting, keyboarding, word processing, transcription, dictation, grammar, and mechanics; as well as organizational strategies such as selecting a topic, brainstorming details, and logically sequencing them in sentences, paragraphs, and essay
