How to Save Time

As a parent, your role in helping your child learn to read is going to be crucial. Your child needs 10-15 minutes of practice each day and the school team cannot provide that. It adds up to 5 hours per day for a class of 30 children!

You may feel untrained to teach reading, but in less than an hour we can give you the training you need. Then the process can become fun and easy for both you and your child.
