What we do
 NLC is a highly motivational and positive program. We are here
to make the connection in every way possible. There are a
variety of ways each child learns best. We find the learning
style best suited for your child whether it be kinestheticly,
verbally, or visually. We incorporate fine and gross motor
skills to enhance the learning style to expedite the learning
process. The bottom line is that whatever it takes, we make
it happen!
NLC was founded in 2005 for the support of our community. When
a child is struggling, a series of conflicted feelings occur.
It can lower self esteem and bewilder a child's self confidence.
Here at NLC we find the good and build from there. It is a fun
and intense place to come!

Reading - The reading workshop is designed

in the mastery of sounds, blends, word endings, word families,
oral reading and comprehension. All of this is accomplished through
a fun and hands on way.
Math - One group is primarily for the concepts
of addition and subtraction. (first and second grade) The second
group is primarily multiplication and division. (third, fourth,
fifth grade) Workshops are differentiated ensuring long term
memorization vs. short term. The math workshop also includes
time for students to work on any specific math skill that is
frustrating them. Along with these basic skills and strategies,
we also reinforce that grade’s
standards.
Writing Workshops - These are usually conducted
on Saturday afternoons from twelve to two. Writing workshops
emphasize the ability to write a themed paper in a specific amount
of time. It is primarily to learn the writing prompt given for
ISTEP. We use actual ISTEP material from previous years.
