Testimonial
  • Kildonan works miracles! Our son had no self-esteem left and was struggling incredibly through 5th grade in public school. It was a very dark time to say the least. No one could read anything he wrote and the public school’s remedy was to continually give him Kindergarten level books to read or what he used to call “baby books”. Once he came to Kildonan, within his first year, his OG Tutor had him writing not only legibly but, beautiful cursive writing. They had him learn how to properly build an essay and he was writing beautifully written pieces on topics that interested him. And he was reading appropriate grade level books and enjoying every bit of it. Our only regret is that we did enroll him in The Kildonan School sooner. To say that Kildonan saved our son’s life is an understatement and we will be forever grateful to this fine school! -Anonymous (Parent)
  • Being diagnosed later in life I needed the one on one tutoring. I came to Kildonan my junior year of highschool and had only so much time to learn everything. I had the same tutor for both years and had such an amazing bond with her that I still see her from time to time after graduating. The biggest thing I learned from my experience was that my learning disability does not define who I am. Not only did one on one help me educationally it helped me emotionally feel ready for the real world. - Heather Feely (Student)
  • One-to-one tutoring provided daily by an experienced, trained OG practitioner results in phenomenal growth in students' reading proficiency and fluency. Tutors tailor their instruction to meet each student's needs; homework is an opportunity for students to practice new skills. Often, within weeks, students become noticeably more self-confident as they are given the "codes of power." It is a joy and a privilege to be part of this transformation! - Deborah McCants (Tutor)
