Why We Are Not "Tutors"

As a Speech-Language Pathologist, I saw too many intelligent children falling through the cracks of the public school system. They didn't qualify for severe special education, but they were drowning in the general classroom.

I founded Atlas - Literacy & Language to provide the level of clinical intensity that schools simply cannot offer. We are here to give Ooltewah families a medical-grade answer to reading difficulties.

Most tutoring centers focus on "curriculum"—helping the child pass Friday’s test. At Atlas, we focus on Neuroplasticity. We use intense, structured therapy to rewire how the brain perceives and connects sounds to letters. Once the pathway is fixed, reading fluency follows.
