Our Fees & Other Considerations

We developed our unique Fast ForWord home service with two goals in mind:

  • Affordability.

  • Comprehensive service, for parents and students.

We have been delivering on these goals since our inception in 2006. Our Fast ForWord home service is not only much more comprehensive than any other provider, it is also significantly cheaper -- in fact, thousands of dollars cheaper in most cases.

Gemm Learning Fees

Our rates vary depending on your program length and choices, service needs and your payment plan. Generally we come in below the cost of a tutor. Most clients choose our affordable three-month prepayment option with an even lower monthly rate after that, so that even if you do need more than three months, it is not expensive to continue.

Other Cost Considerations

This is a one-time program
Our goal is learning proficiency and independence, which will save you thousands of dollars in future tutoring costs, not to mention the ongoing time and effort that comes with endless tutoring.

Great outcomes
Outcomes are closely correlated with compliance, completing the daily assignments. We have great outcomes because we go to great lengths to motivate our students, and we have a comprehensive support service focused on convenience and keeping them informed on progress. Consequently, Gemm Learning students have very high achievement levels, well above the national average for Fast ForWord participants.

Our Test Drive and Guarantee Reduce Your Risk
We offer two standard features to help clients feel comfortable with our program from the outset:

  • Test Drive. Sometimes a child will just not take to our program. Or your schedule is not as open as you'd thought. And so we offer our Two Week Test Drive to all starting families. Inside that period a family can cancel for any reason at all, and we will refund all but a $125 registration free. Warning: very few clients take us up on this test drive. So once your start with us, expect to continue!

  • Our Guarantee. We stand by our results. If you are not happy with the outcome we will provide another program free of charge for up to three months. We love this guarantee. First, it says to future clients we believe in what we are doing. And second, it helps us meet your ultimate goal of changing how you or your child learns. Learn more

Financial Flexibility
Gemm Learning has a service option to meet your financial needs. Clients can take advantage of discounted rates with our prepayment packages, they can pay month to month as they go. Your Gemm consultant will help you choose the right package.

Service Level
Fast ForWord is not one but rather a series of programs that require constant monitoring and tweaking. This is why it is not available without professional oversight. Your service provider is an active participant in the process and so they need to understand your child and be responsive to you and your child's needs and goals. Gemm Learning is unmatched in experience and in breadth of service and support resources.
