| According to recent Australian Bureau of Statistics and OECD figures, about half the adults in Australia and other English speaking nations are poor readers, and a third are just coping. This leaves only 1/6 of the population who are rated as good readers or very good readers.
These statistics mean that if your child is only an average reader, then he/she needs help. What's more, poor reading skills impact directly on a child's ability to learn in other areas, especially from grade 5 onwards. As a result, many children are considered to be just average students by their teachers, when really they have the potential to be doing much better at school.
We can help you make sure that your child is a good reader. First we check his/her knowledge of all
the appropriate skills, then we use powerful and effective methods to fix any problem areas quickly.
Good reading skills are vital to your child's success in life.
Teaching your child to read well is the most valuable gift
you could ever give.
