PHILOSOPHY
At Pinnacle Education Services, students thrive through structured, multi-modal instruction delivered with high expectations and encouragement. Orton-Gillingham based methods guide instruction that adapts as each student’s neurological profile emerges, keeping their program perfectly aligned for maximum progress.
Families who make their way to Pinnacle Education Services (PES) come in a variety of ways. For many it is a long journey, often full of frustration and tears. No matter the journey, I believe we all have the same hopes and dreams for our children and perhaps similar concerns.
Our mission at PES is to join families on their academic journey, in every student to develop their self-awareness and self-advocacy skills—the ways in which they can best communicate through reading and writing and oral language in any given situation, recognize what they need to be successful, and then explore ways to meet those those needs.
Teaching students how they best learn, what their brains need to learn and communicate is our ultimate goal. We accomplish this pivotal task, of course, by exploring each student's individual neurology through reading, writing, and oral language tasks.
