Dansin Associates’ philosophy of education is “Educational programming decisions must be made based on student needs.” If the curriculum, no matter how popular, is deficient in serving the needs of the child, student learning will be impeded. In that vein, Dansin Associates will use a “Best Practice,” prescriptive approach to delivering education. Only the best programs, supported by systematic, scientific research will be used, and only used if they meet the specific needs of the individual student.

Direct Instruction was created with the belief that all children can learn, but sometimes need extra support.
