Achieve in our two month Summer Intensive what takes up to 5-6 months during the school year. Our service includes professional oversight, customized programming, weekly reporting and on-line rewards.

Summer Intensive

This is our at home multi-program service for up to 90 minute a day. It allows families to pursue multiple learning and reading goals, completing in two summer months what takes 3-5 months in the school year. Read more below.

Standard Program For Two Months

If you are looking for a 30 or 50 minute program and/or you are mainly concerned with keeping your child reading and thinking over summer, to avoid regression, then our Standard Program is your best choice. It can be purchased by the month.

Multi-Month Packages

Our best success stories come from students who spend 4-6 months with us -- longer protocols over summer and 30- 50 minutes during the school year tag-ends. Our Extended Summer prepayment option includes our multi-program Summer Intensive block at our standard single program rate.

More About The Summer Intensive

A Multi-Program Approach At Home

Our Summer Intensive is Gemm unlimited! Multiple programs for as long as you want up to a total of 90 minutes a day either in one or two blocks each day. It allows you to achieve multiple learning or reading goals -- for instance decoding and spelling or decoding and thinking while reading -- at one time, all the while under expert Gemm guidance.

We bring the center to you!

• Constant guidance and support of your personal Gemm professional.
• Virtual rewards at www.gemmcity.com
• Weekly reporting
• Customized program planning to meet your child's unique needs.
• Affordable packages

Multiple learning goals using our Summer Intensive may include:

• Strengthening processing and cognitive foundation with Fast ForWord Language v2 or Literacy.


• Developing reading specific skills -- spelling, syntax, reading comprehension, and thinking while reading -- with a mix of Fast ForWord Reading series exercises customized to meet your child's need.


• Memory, focus and organization skills work with BrainWare Safari.


• Any mix of the above or a full 90 minutes of intense exercise in one program at a time.

During the school year, where schedules are tighter and many children are exhausted from a tough school day, we tend to run shorter sessions and tackle the above goals sequentially. Summer is a unique opportunity for an accelerated approach, our Summer Intensive.
