Langsford made a HUGE difference in our daughter's reading skills, I can't believe where she was a year ago. Our daughter seemed to struggle with letters and reading from the beginning, it was noticed in school in KG, but seemed to stick around year after year. She was utilizing interventions at school, but it always seemed like she would work so hard just to finish the year AT (not below) grade level for reading. My husband and I started to wonder if there was "something else" going on, since it wasn't like she wasn't trying - she was working really hard, and just didn't seem to "get it." In 2nd grade we started to feel really strongly that the school was not providing the right kind of assistance to help the situation (it was actually causing a lot of anxiety and anger for her around reading) and we sought out other means of testing to see if there was something we were all missing. We have friends whose children are both dyslexic and went through tutoring at Langsford, which is how I knew about it. Langsford did testing that revealed that our daughter had an under-developed phonetic awareness, we also did additional testing with a psychiatrist and found out she has dyslexia. The learning plan that was presented to us was comprehensive. There was a recommended number of 1:1 sessions, with the expectation that when those sessions were done, there would be some follow up "fluency practice" 2x a week for 2-3 months. It's a commitment...but it's 100% worth it! The planed 1:1 sessions are scheduled every day - 5 days a week for 50 min each. They are upfront about pricing, they send you a quote to review and there is no pressure to commit, there are no hidden fees. It is expensive - but it is honestly a reasonable rate for a 1:1 tutor when you look at the price per session. You are also not locked in to the total number of sessions in your quote, if it's not working for your child you can cancel your sessions. You have an option to do in person sessions at the location in Louisville (Bardstown Rd) or online in a virtual meeting room. Also - this is not a "forever" program, which seems rare in a subscription world. They develop a finite plan and execute it and the improvement by the end when they release them is amazing. They always have workshops that you can attend if you want, you can always reach out and go back if you need more support. What I really loved: You are assigned a learning coordinator who is your point of contact the whole time your child is going through sessions. Ours has been amazing - she tells us the honest truth about how our child is doing in sessions and what she needs to progress. She is there anytime we have questions about anything or even looking for her opinion/expertise for things going on at school. She was also able to provide some recommendations for other services we were seeking and she was just overall an amazing advocate for our daughter. What else I loved: The positivity and gentle nature of all the staff, instructors and learning coordinators at Langsford! When your child is having difficulty in school it can seem like an endless string of complaints from the school and teachers. No one says anything positive about your child during parent/teacher conferences and it starts to wear on your heart. You know your child, you know they have so many positive attributes and it's hard to be their defender in all these situations. Not at Langsford! It was just so nice to have every meeting start with talking about your child's strengths, what they're good at, who they are as a person and how amazing they really are. I know it doesn't sound like much, but if you're here reading this review, then you might be having the same experiences we were having with our child and I know it breaks your heart. Ok and now the bottom line: Our daughter can read...really well. She's comfortably at grade level and improving every day. We saw results immediately and things just got better and better from there. Now she ENJOYS reading, often reading in her spare time!
Our son worked with Langsford, and we couldn’t be happier. He is now thriving at his new school. We’re grateful for the incredible work and dedication of Mary and the Langsford team. They truly helped build his confidence and set him up for success.
We have attended Langsford for the past three years. I can’t recommend Langsford enough. Our grandson is reading at grade level thanks to the help of Langsford Learning Center.
It is hard to put into words how thankful we are to Langsford and the team of people that helped my 12 year old daughter for 6 months (5 days a week) to manage her dyslexia diagnosis. Her Coach Mary was her champion every single day and made the challenge my daughter faced more manageable and attainable- always putting my daughters needs first. I am so happy and proud to say that my daughter is making straight A’s in her 6th grade year at Louisville Collegiate! THANK YOU LANGSFORD!!
Langsford is LIFE CHANGING! Before Langsford my son could not really read. Because of his time there reading is now his favorite hobby. They helped him catch up academically but more importantly they helped him develop a passion for reading that he will carry for the rest of his life. The folks that work there are wonderful and the way they celebrate and connect with the kids is truly magical. I recommend Langsford to everyone I meet. It’s given my son confidence and community. The staff cares about your kid and sees their potential. It’s a truly special place!
