At Light Up Learning…
We respect and nurture the complexity that makes up every individual — not only those areas created for tests, grades and generalized standards. Through integrated mediation of perception, cognition, emotions and academics, students can move beyond surface learning and achieve life-long change!
We heal learning disabilities with evidence-based educational therapies that transform thinking processes PERMANENTLY so that students can embrace their God-given uniqueness and fully engage their potential.
It’s Much More Than Grades!
School can seem limiting for children that face learning difficulties. They may begin to believe they’re not “smart enough” or “good enough”, and the problem is usually more than academic. For this reason, our interventions target the learner holistically —
FROM HEAD TO HEART
✔ social/emotional
✔ cognitive/perceptual
✔ academic
✔ spiritual
Because Every Student Wants to Learn.
Even those that struggle. Learners simply need opportunities to explore their world, use their gifts, make their own connections, and trust that they are capable.
Every student CAN learn! Plain and simple. We believe that given the right tools and the right timing, learners WILL be successful!

Hear From Parents and Students…
My daughter “E” is a very shy, slow to warm girl. She was struggling in school and we had no idea why. Since we started working with Jessie, I have seen her transform into a much more confident little girl, improving not only in her academics, but most importantly in her self confidence, her capacity to discuss different topics, as well as her reading. Jessie has inspired her so much that she even mentioned she may want to be a therapist some day, to help kids like Jessie does. There is no better testament to the impact that she has had in “E’s” life than that.
This year was the year. He entered 3rd grade & the looming FSA was above us. If he didn’t pass, he would be retained. A week ago, it was confirmed that he had passed third grade. I want to thank Light Up Learning and its phenomenal therapists who spent all those hours with my son helping him learn through play and commitment. As we were jumping up for joy, the words that came out of his mouth were unbelievable: “Mom all the hard work has paid off. With God All Things Are Possible!
Gretel Usatorres – Mother of Eduardo, 3rd Grade
My kids are like tornadoes! Full of energy and having a hard time with reading, spelling, writing and staying on task. It wasn’t until we started educational therapy at Light Up Learning that we pretty quickly started to see the difference. Vanessa received the Most Improved Student Award, and Julian is on the Honor Roll!
Milene Castillo – Mother of Vanessa & Julian
I’m happy to recommend Jessie. She teaches with heart and with humor; a magical combination that allows children to feel comfortable and learn with confidence. I’m amazed by her knowledge and easy, yet powerful techniques. We are in good hands!
Monique Catoggio, EMBA, CPC, ACC – Mother of my nephew, Jacob
Watching Matt work with you is like watching a child’s face light up when they walk into Disney World for the first time! He is flourishing both academically and personally!
Roxy Cachinero – Mother of Matthew, Elementary/Middle Schooler
I wanted to say thank you for all your hard work with Christopher these past five weeks (summer session). I see the improvement so much already! (He) is excited about starting again in the school year!
Laura Mendez – Mother of Christopher, 4th Grader
My daughter has been with Mrs. Jessie Castillo for three years. The techniques she used with my daughter have helped her become more independent in her studies. Her self-esteem and academics have improved due to the therapy she received as well as the annual testing. We praise God for sending Mrs. Castillo and for her dedication, support and love.
