Nuts & Bolts of Private Practice

This on-line course is only for people who are already using the Barton Reading & Spelling System.

These three sessions are recordings of an on-line interactive course conducted by Susan Barton with groups of Barton tutors. Some had been tutoring professionally for years, while others just wanted to learn what it takes to start and successfully run a part-time or full-time tutoring practice.

This course was conducted as three separate sessions. Handouts are included. You may watch one, two or all three sessions. And you may rewatch a session as often as you wish.
