Interested in helping your grandhildren learn or in furthering their existing knowledge? Reading Advantage has the tools to make this possible.

Learning difficulties rooted in medical or emotional problems require the involvement of professionals skilled in those areas. Often, however, the tests will show us that a student simply needs educational coaching techniques beyond what the typical classroom provides... this goes beyond tutoring per se. It involves the student's total environment, emotional understanding and building self-esteem. This is what sets Reading Advantage apart from tutoring services.

When further help is needed, Reading Advantage is able to work with students one-on-one (or even in small groups when appropriate) so that they are taught in a manner that helps them learn. Each student has the entire class to themselves geared specifically to their own learning styles.

Reading Advantage offers assessments professionally administered by an Educational Diagnostician. Children two years and above and adults of any age may be assessed. We may find indications of one or more of the following learning problems: a learning disability, a misunderstanding of fundamental concepts, lack of study skills, or a lack of test-taking skills.

Enrichment is another service offered at Reading Advantage. Many students perform adequately in the classroom but clearly have the talent to achive more. They need added stimulation to work up to and stretch beyond their potential.

Reading Advantage cares and strives for success in the individual... not just academic improvement.

Skills Assessed and Taught

There's more to Reading Advantage than reading. We help children and adults succeed in a wide range of skills in addition to just reading, including: Comprehension, Phonics, Writing, Spelling, Math, Studying, Test Taking, Literature Enrichment and English as a Second Language.
