Helping Parents and Teachers Help Children
"It is every parent’s responsibility to ensure that their
child receives the tools to succeed in school as well as in life. This goal can
be achieved if the parent begins to think like a teacher as well as a parent.
In my experience, school success is often the result of a home environment
where learning and achievement have become priorities." Dr. David P. Sortino, Director Cal. T.C.

RESPONSIBILITY
to Our Children
Educational Consulting & Testing can help
parents learn how to motivate as well as help raise the level of school
achievement of their children. This includes such strategies as study skills,
homework preparation, test taking, problem solving and skill building. These
are all the skills teachers demand of their students to become successful but
are rarely understood or used by most parents. It is our purpose to provide
you with strategies that you can implement and teach in the home. Educational
Consulting & Testing can help create pathways to school success and learning.

PRAISE for Dr. David P. Sortino
“We met with Dr. Sortino because our child was experiencing
a great deal of school failure. Through a series of assessments, Dr. Sortino
was able to define our child’s difficulties as well as provide us with concrete
strategies to deal with our child’s problems. Today our child’s attitude toward
school has reversed. Now he actually likes school and his grades have improved
dramatically!” — Parent “Dr. Sortino’s ability to define a student’s [learning
or behavioral] problem is excellent. He can take a limited amount of
information, pinpoint the stu- dent’s strengths and weaknesses, and then offer
creative strategies that work.” — Principal “I turn to Dr. Sortino not only for
his experience as an educator but also for his strong background in working
with at risk children and youth. His understanding of both worlds is a plus for
any parent or teacher looking for answers.” — Psychologist
