Initial Consultation

During our first conversation, we will have an opportunity to discuss your concerns and determine if our services will be a good fit for you and your family. The initial conversation provides an opportunity to discuss your student and determine if Coziplans is the right service for your family.  When we meet, we will go over your concerns and what you are looking for your student to get out of the sessions.

First Session

During the first session the instructor will complete a variety of quick assessments with the student. These assessments will be used to determine what gaps there are in their understanding of the concepts and decide what the next steps will be.  Furthermore, completing these assessments allows the instructor to individualize the lessons to meet each student’s specific learning needs.

Individualized instruction

Instead of using “one size fits all” lessons our instructors create individualized lessons to meet the student where they are in their knowledge base.  Lessons will be adjusted in difficulty as the student begins to demonstrate mastery of the concepts introduced. Lastly, one to one sessions allows us to meet the needs of each individual and provide them with focused instruction in their areas of need.

Session Formats

Unlike workshop sessions, the exact session format will vary based on session length and student needs. To begin with, each session will introduce a skill to work on. Then the student will practice skills using activities from the session. Finally, sessions will include a variety of strategies, including playing games, to allow repetition of the concepts as the student works towards mastery.

Progress Checks

Additionally, if the client requests feedback, we offer monthly progress checks or conversations that will take place at the beginning of a scheduled session.  These conversations should last about five to ten minutes.
