History
Established in 1997 The Reading Clinic has been serving Bay Area families for 15 years, enhancing academic performance and self-esteem for children of all ages. In response to the challenges of an increasingly complex and competitive world, we have added a new, exciting program called Ace Academics. With particular emphasis on basic Language Arts concepts, Ace Academics takes the written and spoken word to a higher level. Our combination of ultra-small classes and one-on-one instruction promotes competent, confident self-expression across the curriculum. We coach students in all forms of writing, including narrative, expository, persuasive and responsive. We offer specialty courses in Science and Social Studies writing, and Mathematics word problems, taught by skilled and experienced mentors. We also offer courses in speech writing and delivery for students who want to develop or polish their presentation skills. Express Yourself at Ace Academics.
