Creating New Pathways

Creating New Pathways was formed by owner and founder Rita Mills in 2015. An educational professional with a background in child development, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, multiple specialized training's, including Lindamood-Bell, Read Naturally, and TESOL, she had been working with children for 7 years before CNP was created.

Creating New Pathways offers therapy in math and reading (comprehension, word recognition, grammar and spelling) for Pre-K through 8th grade students. With our focused and in-depth one-on-one sessions, your child's tutor will cultivate a relationship that encourages learning-friendly habits which will inspire lifelong growth.

This program develops conceptual imagery and the ability to visualize both oral and written language. By engaging in frequent and sequential practice, students must visualize and verbalize key details of text, recall information, sequence events, and paraphrase stories.

Through guided discovery techniques, children explore the physical movements involved in producing sounds, and learn to hear, see, and feel the physical characteristics of language.This in-depth knowledge leads to the child's ability to understand how words are constructed and to learn to self-correct, which are essential skills for independent reading and spelling.

While having nothing to do with intelligence, certain learning disabilities can hinder a child's performance levels and often affect their attitude towards learning. Processing issues are a common hindrance to children. Our teaching strategies are designed to help your child work around these issues to achieve success.

Miss Rita went above and beyond with my son, who has ADHD. Not only did she get him excited about reading when no one else could, she also shared tools with me for redirecting his poor behavioral choices. She maintains the perfect balance of kindness, patience, and austerity. I am not exaggerating when I say that Miss Rita has changed our lives for the better.
