This course is a rapid reading intervention that is ideal for struggling readers and students with dyslexia, ADHD or other learning disabilities and difficulties.
Most of our students see a notable increase in their reading and writing confidence at the end of the first week. Students who take the course are usually between grade 1 and grade 8.
We currently offer this in-person course in the Greater Toronto Area. During the course the tutor and student will meet in person at our teaching facility in Toronto/Etobicoke.
