Our campers may need to improve eye-contact, sharing, turn-taking, staying on topic, maintaining a conversation, empathy, and/or the overall intelligibility of speech. We address IEP (Individualized Education Plan) goals if needed. We work closely with Ohio school districts to help them meet the needs of their students during the summer and throughout the school year if requested.

And we are known for working with children with learning differences: learning disabilities, dyslexia, ADHD, cognitive delay, Autism, Asperger’s Syndrome, PDD, and other struggling learners. We are Jon Peterson and Autism Scholarship Providers. Recently we developed a multi-sensory systematic phonics program for children in Pre-K to Grade 2. With puppets, animation, and children in five-minute videos, the teacher/parent is trained as the child learns to read. The child has the same materials modeled in the videos to practice the new skill they have learned.
