What Is the Unique Abilities (UA) Scholarship?

The Unique Abilities (UA) scholarship — officially the Unique Abilities (UA) scholarship — is Florida's education savings account for students with a documented diagnosis, from autism and ADHD to dyslexia, Down syndrome, and dozens more. It serves children from age 3 through 12th grade (or up to age 22), and it's the only Step Up program that begins at age 3. Awards depend on your child's matrix of services level: most families receive around $10,000 a year, rising to roughly $22,000 at matrix level 254 and $34,000 at level 255. Funds live in a parent-controlled ESA and pay for 1-on-1 tutoring, therapies, curriculum, technology, and even specialized summer camps — with tutoring consistently among the highest-impact ways families invest it.

Who Qualifies for the UA Scholarship and What Does It Cover?
UA eligibility is diagnosis-based, not income-based. Qualifying diagnoses include autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, dyslexia and specific learning disabilities, intellectual disability, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, hearing and visual impairments, traumatic brain injury, and others documented by a qualified healthcare professional. Families apply through Step Up For Students or AAA Scholarships, and once approved, funds appear in the EMA account on the quarterly schedule. The ESA flexes across tutoring, therapies, curriculum, and technology, and approved providers like Tutero are paid through EMA direct pay — meaning $0 out-of-pocket for your family. Many families pair weekly 1-on-1 lessons with therapy services in the same year, building an individualized plan that actually fits their child.

How Does Tutoring Adapt to a Child with Unique Abilities?
Every student learns differently—this is especially true for children with unique abilities. That’s why our tutoring model isn’t based on rigid lesson plans or cookie-cutter methods. At Tutero, we take a child-centered approach. Before tutoring begins, we collaborate with families to learn about the student’s strengths, goals, and challenges. We then match them with a teacher experienced in working with learners who may have sensory processing differences, attention challenges, or communication needs. Sessions focus not only on academic content but also on the skills that support learning—organisation, memory, and confidence. Whether a student needs support with basic numeracy, reading comprehension, or structured writing, we build a plan that scaffolds learning step by step. For students with speech or motor challenges, we incorporate alternative strategies to ensure understanding. With patience, empathy, and structure, our teachers help create an environment where students can thrive—on their own terms, and at their own pace. Tutero supports these students through the Unique Abilities Scholarship, with tutoring tailored to their learning style.


How Does UA Tutoring Fit Around Family Life?
Finding the right educational support shouldn’t mean rearranging your entire life. That’s why Tutero offers live, online tutoring that’s as flexible as it is effective. Our sessions can be scheduled around your child’s therapy appointments, school commitments, or other routines—without the need to travel. For many families using the Unique Abilities Scholarship, online tutoring has been a game-changer. It provides comfort, consistency, and convenience, all from home. Parents can sit in, monitor progress, and participate in shaping the tutoring journey. And for students who may struggle with new environments or transitions, learning in a familiar setting often enhances focus and reduces anxiety. We serve families across Florida—from Miami and Orlando to rural communities where in-person resources may be limited. Our goal is simple: make tutoring accessible, affordable (through your ESA), and adapted to your life. With Tutero, it’s easier than ever to integrate targeted learning support into your child’s everyday routine.
Every Florida family’s Step Up path is a little different. These guides point you to the right one:
Teachers adjust pacing, communication style, and session structure based on the student's diagnosis and individual profile. For a student with ADHD, that might mean shorter activity blocks with built-in movement breaks. For a student on the autism spectrum, it could involve consistent session routines, clear visual instructions, and reduced open-ended prompting. Parents can share details from their child's evaluation or IEP to help the teacher tailor the approach from the first session.
Tutero does not attend IEP meetings, but families can share IEP goals, progress reports, or accommodation plans with the teacher so sessions support those same objectives. If a student's IEP targets specific reading fluency benchmarks or math skills, the teacher can align session work to reinforce those areas. Parents serve as the bridge between Tutero and the school, and our team can prepare progress documentation that families can bring to IEP reviews.
Tutero sessions are conducted one-on-one in a quiet online environment, which many families find more manageable than a busy classroom. Teachers can adjust screen brightness expectations, reduce visual clutter in shared materials, and keep audio levels consistent. If a student needs breaks, silence between activities, or a slower pace, the teacher accommodates that. Parents who share specific sensory concerns upfront help the teacher prepare a session environment that works for the student.
Progress timelines vary significantly depending on the student's starting point, the nature of their diagnosis, and how consistently they attend sessions. Some students show measurable improvement in foundational skills within four to six weeks of regular sessions. Others may need longer to build trust with the teacher before academic progress accelerates. Tutero tracks progress against the Florida B.E.S.T. Standards and shares updates with parents regularly so growth is visible even when it is gradual.
Yes. The UA education savings account can fund multiple approved services simultaneously, including tutoring, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and instructional materials. Families decide how to allocate their balance based on their child's needs. Tutero can help you estimate session costs so you can plan your ESA budget across all of your child's services without overspending in one area.
The first session is designed to be low-pressure. The teacher focuses on getting to know the student, understanding how they communicate, and identifying what they are comfortable with. There may be a brief informal assessment of academic skills, but the primary goal is to build rapport. The teacher uses what they learn in this session to plan future lessons at the right level and pace. Parents receive a summary afterward with the teacher's initial observations and recommended learning plan.
