Reading and Literacy

Screen Shot 2014-03-27 at 2.02.37 PMOral language development and early literacy abilities begin at infancy. Children who experience speech and language delays may also experience difficulties when it is time to read.

Reading is one of the most prevalent learning difficulties among elementary-school-aged children. It is also the way children access the school curriculum. Effective reading instruction is essential, yet proper intervention is rarely provided in the average classroom. Providing appropriate reading instruction allows your child to close this gap and access the curriculum.

Reading Tutoring consists of 45 minutes of instruction, home-programming and parent consultation.

Instruction is customized to meet the specific needs of the client to increase reading automaticity, word recognition, orthographic skills, comprehension, confidence and grade-reading level.
