DLS tutors are more than subject area experts.
They are also experts in helping students apply and build on the study skills and techniques taught by DLS learning specialists. Students make exceptional progress when they partner with a learning specialist for skill development, and a tutor to use their skills consistently to get homework and projects done, and to study for exams.
Tutors are available for private, one-on-one sessions or semi-private study groups. Subjects include:
All levels of Math, from Arithmetic to Calculus
Chemistry, Physics, Biology
Academic Composition and Creative Writing
Spanish, French
Test Preparation
Study Hall is the ideal tool for building study skills and independence.
We know that studying isn't easy and it isn't automatic. It is a lifelong tool worth developing: Study Halls after school can add 60-90 minutes of study time (students often add study hall before or after tutoring or educational therapy sessions).

Thrive as a Learner with Independent Studies / Directed Studies
Online courses or home school programs can be great independent learning options that help you move forward in your educational goals when classroom learning does not fit your learning profile, schedule, or academic status. But succeeding in independent learning entirely on your own can be unnecessarily difficult. Instead, get the independent study results you want through DLS Directed Studies.
Our program is an ideal choice for successful independent learning, with the goal not just to get you through the coursework, but to help you thrive as a learner. Ask about Directed Studies when you need:
• Subject area tutoring for an online or home school course
• Credit recovery (with your school, or a certified school)
• Support with organizing and completing assignments and exams, and preparing for tests
• Test proctoring and tutoring for Brigham Young University (BYU) Independent Studies high school and college courses
• Private support for professional exams (board, certification exams)
• Transitional educational planning, support, and instruction between school placements
Adaptive Technology Training
What is Adaptive (Assistive Tech)?
Adaptive (Assistive) computer technology can be a true productivity boost in reading, writing, and organization. Software tools do not replace learning, but are designed to let you show what you know more easily.
DLS provides training in speech-to-text, which allows you to speak (rather than handwrite or keyboard) to get your thoughts onto paper. Our exemplar application is Dragon 13 (PC)/Dragon Dictate (Mac); we also train offer training for built-in speech to text features (PC/Mac). We’ll help you choose which available option is best for you.
Some basic computer skills are necessary to utilize the software. We’ll help you create a working plan.
