One-on-one teaching is designed as a positive experience, focusing on the child's strengths, needs, and interests. Students are coached as they learn new strategies and skills in reading, writing and mathematics. Open communication with parents is also an important part of the Ed Lab experience.
The Ed Lab has an extensive collection of reading materials including children’s books, periodicals, fiction, non-fiction, newspapers, reference materials, basal texts, arts and crafts books, and teacher resources.
Pre-service educators work with students in a one-on-one setting to provide rich language arts experiences, including reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Students listen, read and respond to reading activities in a variety of ways. Arts and crafts are often used as a vehicle for responses to reading. Drama is frequently used as a method for demonstrating reading comprehension.
A variety of manipulatives are used in each math lesson to provide a visual representation of the math concepts being taught. Math concepts are reinforced through the use of connection projects with books containing math themes.
University students enrolled in special needs courses work with children in grades K-12. Children are taught in a one-on-one setting under Ed Lab staff supervision.

The course of instruction is tailored to meet individual children’s needs in the areas of reading, math, and study skills.
