Hill Learning Center

How grateful we are for the brilliance and magic of the Hill Learning Center! Our son, who is now 12 and entering 7th grade, attended Hill Center from 3rd through 6th grade. He has excelled and learned so much that he is now able to go back to his base school full-time for 7th grade. I cannot say enough superlatives about the quality of the education at Hill Center or the amazing skills of the teachers. While we didn't realize it at first and had all the normal trepidation about our son attending two schools (Hill and his base school), my husband and I quickly learned that Hill Center was a gift from the educational universe. It was an excellent decision to send our son to Hill Center, and I highly recommend it for those with learning differences. Our son obviously still has dyslexia, but he now has the skill set and ability not to let it interfere with his education or his confidence.

We are so, so grateful for Hill. My son has been enrolled in after-school tutoring at Hill, and most recently, completed their summer program. I can already see so many gains! He is now electing to read graphic novels, on his own, for enjoyment -- and without me reading alongside with him. He is choosing to write funny notes and make signs around the house -- something I have not seen him do before! He has found friends at Hill, too. Hill is helping him get past the hurdles of learning, and gain confidence. The facility is beautiful, and the communication to families is very organized. We're grateful.

I cannot say enough positive things about the Hill Center. The teachers are incredible, highly knowledgeable, and responsive. The admins are the same, many former teachers themselves. It`s a well-run school with a clear focus on the students. My child is finally learning how to learn thanks to Hill and is close to being caught up to grade level after being behind for years.

I cannot say enough about Hill Center's effectiveness for remediating my child's learning difference, dyslexia. The faculty is incredibly professional, personable, warm and caring. A community is fostered here even though it's a half-day program and children don't attend like a full day school. The children become friends across ages and grade levels on the playground. They add special touches like Halloween celebrations to give it a school feel. Everywhere we'd go in the building, all teachers knew my child and would say "hello." It is truly a place where children are known and loved. Some teachers are warmer and more nurturing than others but overall there is a nurturing approach to the class work. My child entered Hill at a 1st grade reading level and in one school year achieved a beginning fourth grade reading level. Talk about closing the gap! This child's confidence has soared.
