How Reading Intervention will support the learner:

- Alignment with Right to Read recommendations
- All skills taught to mastery, but at student’s pace
- Individualized lessons based on student’s strengths and interests
- Establishing rapport with students to enrich environment, motivate and support belief systems
- Focus on Phonics, Fluency, Decoding and Comprehension
- Data driven results through daily assessment and monitoring


“Literacy is an equity issue. Learning to read is a human right. LEARNstyle supports this thinking for all learners”
– Barbara Williams
“Our daughter is a little reluctant to jump on the online meetings, however at the end of the sessions, without fail, she comes skipping out of the room with a big smile on her face and all proud of herself. What you are doing is working! Her confidence is building, and her comfort level in sounding out words she does not know has increased, when she is reading to me I hear a difference in the flow there are fewer struggles with certain words and her pronunciation even during conversations is clearer. “
