Targeted and Intensive Reading Intervention

Dyslexia is a learning disorder that affects the ability to read, spell, write, and speak. Kids who have it are usually very bright. In fact, dyslexia is an unexpected difficulty in reading in an individual who has the intelligence to be a much better reader. While people with dyslexia are slow readers, they usually are very fast and creative thinkers with strong reasoning abilities. 

Unlike speaking, children don't just "pick up" the ability to read from the environment.  Those with dyslexia have trouble connecting the letters they see to the sounds those letters make. 

Research shows that about 80% of children will learn to read with some form of instruction, but the remaining 20% need structured, explicit instruction on the letter-sound correlations of the language.  

When children don't read well, they dread going to school every day. Frequent stomach aches, behavioral issues, and poor self-esteem are often indicators of their struggle.  Early intervention can have dramatic results, and 95%-100% of children can be taught to read when given the appropriate tools. 

With engaging, multisensory, structured language therapy, struggling readers learn not only how to read, spell, and write effectively, but their confidence levels soar as well!
