Reading Tutoring
“If children can’t learn the way we teach, then we have to teach the way they learn”
– Ignacio Estrada
Why Specialized Reading Tutoring is Essential
For many students, the standard classroom approach to literacy isn’t enough. If a child struggles with decoding, fluency, or comprehension, they don’t just need more instruction—they need different instruction.
At Reading With Results, our reading tutoring program is designed specifically for students who haven’t found success with traditional methods. We move beyond simple “homework help” to address the root causes of reading struggles, including dyslexia and auditory processing challenges.
Effective reading tutoring must be grounded in the Science of Reading. We utilize the Barton Reading & Spelling System, a premier implementation of the Orton-Gillingham approach. This isn’t a “one size fits all” curriculum; it is a specialized framework that is:
Multisensory: We engage sight, sound, and touch to help the brain build stronger neural pathways for language.
Systematic & Cumulative: We ensure a student has 100% mastery of one concept before introducing the next, preventing the “swiss cheese” effect in their education.
Diagnostic: Our tutors constantly monitor student progress, adjusting every session to the child’s specific needs.
The Goal of Our Reading Tutoring Program
True literacy is a three-legged stool. Our reading and writing tutoring ensures that students can not only decode words on a page but also encode them (spelling) and express complex ideas (writing).
To support this, we integrate:
Phonemic Awareness Training: The essential foundation for all reading success.
IEW (Institute for Excellence in Writing): A structured method that turns struggling writers into confident communicators.
Advanced Fluency Work: Moving beyond basic phonics to help students read with speed, accuracy, and expression.
The ultimate aim is independence. We don’t want students to need a tutor forever; we want to give them the tools to succeed in any academic environment.
Measurable Results: Students who complete our full program typically achieve a mid-ninth-grade reading level.
Increased Confidence: As reading becomes easier, the anxiety and “school-refusal” behaviors often associated with reading struggles begin to disappear.
Specialized Expertise: Every tutor on our team is a specialist in reading remediation, trained to handle the complexities of the dyslexic brain.
