FAQs
At what age can my student start attending?
- We work with students aged four and up who are able to focus for 10-15 minutes.
How many times a week will my student come to the center and for how long is each visit?
- Most students attend twice a week for center visits and complete Gideon assignments at home the other days. However, you can come once a week or request extra classes for an additional fee.
- Each center visit is typically 30 minutes per subject to do individual daily assignments, complete any old corrections, and review new material. A Gideon instructor will be at the table with the students to assist as needed. Most students will be seated with a 3:1 student to teacher ratio.
What level of work will my student be doing?
- During the free placement evaluation, we will find a ‘just right’ point in the Gideon curriculum based on what skills your student shows as mastered in order to fill any holes and gaps in his foundation. Read more about the importance of mastering lower levels HERE. Download a full curriculum listing HERE.
- Our goal is to build confidence through mastery with progress right from the start to encourage focus and concentration.
Does Gideon work with students with learning differences such as dyslexia?
- Yes, the Gideon program works well for most students, including those with learning differences. While school must continue on its schedule, we have the luxury of time to allow the student to set the pace and do any extra practice needed to truly master each level. If your student has dyslexia, read THIS to find out why Gideon is a good solution.
Does Gideon work with students with special needs such as autism?
- Yes, the Gideon program works with many special needs students. We can evaluate further if Gideon is a good fit when we meet your student during the free placement evaluation.
How do we get the MOST out of Gideon?
- Simply doing the daily work consistently will result in great progress, but review these tips for parents HERE.

This was the first year my kids attended Gideon. Mr. Jones and his staff were very informative and always willing to assist in anyway. My daughter isn’t the strongest in Math but after 2 months at Gideon she feels more confident and ready for the upcoming school year. My son is a strong math student. Mr. Jones recommended him to focus on a higher level math to get him ahead and prepared to conquer 8th grade advanced algebra. I highly recommend Gideon!

Mr. Jones and his team are fantastic! We noticed a significant jump in confidence in only.a couple of weeks of Algebra tutoring. They have been extremely flexible as we rush over after practice from school athletics. Appreciate how they spend the extra time and follow up to ensure concept comprehension. Mr. Jones is truly in for the kids and appreciate how they have gone above and beyond. Thank you Gideon!

Gideon Math and Reading in Garland has been a life saver for this family. Our son, despite hours of studying, was not doing well in Algebra II. Within a few weeks of working with Mr. Rose, our son's grades have improved as well as his understanding. The cost is very affordable compared to other tutoring companies. Ms. Rita is very welcoming, and owner Mr. Jones shows real interest and pride ensuring all students succeed. Thanks Gideon Math & Reading!

My daughter looks forward to her tutoring session with Mr. Jones. Math isn’t her favorite subject but the encouragement she receives from her tutors makes her willing to try. Last year was especially difficult for her learning remotely, however she was able to do well on STAAR with Mr. Jones help.

Amazing teacher and a great curriculum. Mister Curry did a great job at boosting student's confidence and improving his reading in short period of time. He goes extra mile to make sure student gets the benefit needed. Moreover, As for the curriculum for beginning readers, I find that the repetition in Gideon booklets make it smoother for kids to practice spelling without getting board.
