We offer the two-year Take Flight program designed for children and young adults with dyslexia and other related language disorders. This comprehensive program is best conducted in person, either at school or in our office; however, we do offer a remote learning option when in-person sessions are not possible. This program is ideal for students who are not achieving their reading skills through standard educational methods and would benefit from alternative reading education approaches. Students who received Take Flight instruction showed significant growth in all areas of reading and maintained gains in word reading and text comprehension years after treatment.

• Two-year curriculum
• Children with dyslexia ages 7 and older
• Addresses five specific components of reading intervention.
• Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative, multisensory method of introduction and practice
• To be taught four days per week (60 minutes per day) or five days per week (45 minutes per day)

Designed for young students with early detection of dyslexia or other reading disabilities, the Build Program provides reading education both before and alongside classroom education. I offer assessments for parents or teachers who have noticed a child’s inability or difficulty in reading at a young age. This program is most effective because it helps students establish good habits from the beginning, allowing them to develop reading skills, alphabet skills, letter/sound knowledge, phonological awareness, vocabulary, and comprehension.

• Designed for early detection of reading disabilities
• Meets the needs of the K-1 students who have been identified at risk for dyslexia, 
• Build is an individual or small group intervention that addresses five specific components of reading intervention. 
• 1 year program 
• Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative, multisensory method of introduction and practice

 We offer ongoing reading education for individuals or small groups of children who are the same age and have the same or similar reading levels. These classes are best conducted in person, either at school or in my office; however, remote learning options are available when in-person sessions are not possible. I find that 45-60 minute classes, held two to three times a week, are the most effective, depending on the current reading level and the pathway to reaching the desired reading skills. I follow the Rite Flight program, which I have found to be the most effective for improving accuracy, automaticity, and rate to enhance prosody. 

• Recommend 2 sessions per week
• Ages 6 - High School 
• Longevity of the program depends on initial levels and goal level
• Focus on increasing student reading rates, fluency, and comprehension.
• Supplemental or intervention instruction design to support for individuals or small groups

 While many reading disabilities are detected early in the education process, some students reach higher grade levels undetected. This program is designed to help older students retrain, break bad habits, and develop the skills necessary to achieve grade-level reading abilities. This age-appropriate program focuses on key areas that will enhance their reading skills required for all learning, expanding to word use and fluency. It provides them with a broader skill set to support their success in higher education.

• Designed for students 5-12 Grade (College Age Students also will benefit from the program)
• Focuses on age-appropriate skills: phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, spelling, word use, and sentence structure
• Created to help students develop strategies for comprehending any kind of text
• Leveling is used to meet students where they are and works to get them where they need to be

 TransMath® 3rd is a robust math intervention program designed to bridge the "math gap" for middle and high school students. It effectively addresses the needs of students who lack foundational computational and problem-solving skills, struggle with the pace of grade-level material, are two or more years below grade level based on a high-stakes test, and would be unsuccessful in Algebra I without intervention. The program provides comprehensive instruction in foundational computational skills and offers rich, grade-level problem-solving experiences to ensure students succeed on high-stakes assessments.

• Grades 5-10
• A full-year program that supports any core curriculum
• 3-4 days per week
• Breaks learning into smaller parts
• Increases student engagement
• Balances foundational and grade-level instruction
