I am looking for a special needs tutor for the two brothers, ages 6 and 10 years old. Both children were born with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a genetic disorder that has caused them to have learning disabilities and lowered attention spans. Sessions would ideally take place once a week for an hour with each child receiving targeted attention for half of that time. Either weeknights or weekends are an option as long as weeknight sessions occur after the children return home from school at 4 p.m. The sessions would need to take place in the family home in Duquesne, PA because family limitations make it infeasible to transport the kids somewhere out of walking distance. They would mainly focus on reading and some math. Some homework help would also be welcome. Pashto is the family's primary language, although the children speak English.
