What Parents Say About Their Children's Progress

“When we first approached Progressive Tutoring [Spark Thinking], doing homework with Bobbie was a nightmare. She did not understand the basics of third-grade reading and math. We enrolled Bobbie in Progressive Tutoring to get her up to grade level. By the start of the school year in September, it was clear the difference Progressive Tutoring had made in my little girl’s life.

She has gone from Fs in 5th grade to As and Bs in 6th grade. There is no doubt in my mind that Bobbie, her mother, and I will look back at these moments as a turning point in her life. Progressive Tutoring was instrumental in making her successful in her academic pursuits. Thanks for all you do!”

Here's Terrence's Tutoring Success Story

“The intervention plan you outlined for Terrence guided me and gave Terrence goals that improved his reading skills and confidence. His gains during his first intensive summer with you made it all worthwhile, especially when he started school later that fall. Homework became a ‘breeze,’ and even his teachers noticed his use of visualizing skills and improved reading at the phoneme and word level.

Before Spark Thinking, he would literally cry whenever asked to read aloud. After one year with you, he prefers books as gifts!

Thank you for bringing out the absolute best reading and comprehension in my son. I’m excited to see him continue growing as he begins work with you in Math this summer. Spark Thinking has been a true God-send for my son. We are forever grateful!”

We’re Dedicated to Your Child’s Learning Success

Hello, I’m Sylvia Hodges, and it’s nice to meet you! 

I’m the director and interventionist. I’ve taught for over 26 years and love helping students excel in reading, comprehension, and math.

Specialized tutoring can change your child’s educational journey and life. Trust me! It happened to my brother.

I’m passionate about giving your child the personalized tutoring that changed my brother’s educational journey and life (yes, it changed his future and what he can achieve)!

When my brother was in kindergarten, he started struggling. My mom waited, hoping his learning would improve, but it only got worse. Then, she sought help from his teachers; however, they weren’t equipped to support his learning needs. Frustrated by the lack of support and resources, she spent years searching for answers, feeling helpless and unsure where to turn.

If you’re worried about your child’s future and wondering if you’ll ever find the right help, I understand.

I’ve been there, too, watching my brother struggle and waiting for a breakthrough.

Finally, a BREAKTHROUGH!

The breakthrough happened when Mom finally found highly skilled and caring educators to help him. They identified and understood his strengths and weaknesses and knew how to help him learn and succeed. They were experienced teachers, but more than that, he knew they cared about his academic success.

After years of struggling, he started to thrive in school—not just for a year, but for the rest of his time as a student and now as an adult.

He is now a board-certified ENT surgeon, a senior lecturer, and the head of the department at the university where he works.

Here’s what I know for sure.

Your child is smart and can succeed in school even if:

  • They have repeatedly struggled.
  • They have a Specific Learning Disability (SLD), dyslexia, ADHD, autism, or dyscalculia.

They need tutoring backed by a proven methodology. And that’s what they’ll get at Spark.

Let’s work together to make your child’s future brighter!
