Learning Support

At The Frederick Gunn School, we are always learning.

Our academic program is rigorous and can also be personalized with learning support. For some students, this additional support is the key to unlocking their ability to find academic success within our college preparatory curriculum.

Centrally located on campus in a beautiful, light-filled space, our learning center offers supplemental coaching for an additional fee. Our learning specialists work one-on-one with students, equipping them with the study skills, strategies, and techniques they need to become efficient, effective, and independent learners. Integrated learning sessions and targeted strategy sessions for executive functioning are integrated into the academic day, much like a class.

Personalized Coaching

A Commitment to Helping Students Learn

STudy Skills
