Tier One Learning, LLC

Tier One Learning Solutions was launched in Fall 2020 out of a sincere passion and need to educate children with integrity by providing an intervention-based tutorial service that goes beyond homework assistance. The idea was brought upon by frustrations and obstacles that my husband and I, both Certified Educators, encountered while teaching in various school districts in Texas.School districts classify students with academic deficits as Tier II and Tier III students performing below grade level in core subjects and school-wide assessments given at various times throughout the school year.

Students live at HomeWorks during the week then spend the weekend with their families. While at our program, students receive housing, transport to and from school, healthy meals, and social and academic resources such as tutoring, therapy, and social identity workshops.

We try to bring all of the benefits of the boarding school experience to public education without high costs and scalability issues.
