About the ECC
Educational : Level 1
Students in 6th grade through 12th grade partner with DePaul pre-service teachers in our level 1 educational services. Tutoring and homework help is available in subject specific areas, such as math, reading & writing, and science. Tutoring across curriculum may also focus on study skills, organization and time management, and strategies for academic success. No formal assessment is needed to participate in level 1 educational services. Parents are asked to commit to 4 weekly sessions at a time.
Educational: Level 2
Literacy Assessment and Remediation services are provided through the Literacy and Specialized Instruction program. DePaul graduate students, obtaining an endorsement as Reading Specialists, meet with children and teens with identified reading difficulties. Sessions vary in length based on the academic quarter, course offering and student's age. Curriculum-based measures are used to monitor students progress on a weekly basis. At the end of the session, a written report detailing the instructional interventions used and students progress is provided. Parents are asked to commit to the entire practicum schedule. Screening or previous evaluation is required to participate in level 2 educational services.
