Imagine feeling confident supporting your child's reading journey.

Who is this for?

This is for anyone who want to unlock a child's full potential by creating a foundation for reading in less than fifteen minutes a day.

Details

Learning to read is challenging, sequential, and multifaceted but it does not need to be complicated. I am here to turn you into your child's personal
literacy expert.  

Did you know?

  • We are not genetically born with a "Reading Brain" - it must be created

  • By age 2, a child's brain is as active as an adult's brain, by age 3, a child's brain is twice as active as an adult brain

  • Newborns make over a million brain connections per second

  • The same areas of the brain light up whether we are reading or being read to

  • Learning to read too early can actually be counterproductive (yes, there is a sweet spot)

  • Oral language, vocabulary, and phonemic proficiency are the top indicators of reading readiness

  • 67% of 4th graders read BELOW grade level - you read that correctly - almost 70% of children in the US are not reading proficiently

  • 1 in 5 students is estimated to have Dyslexia

  • We learn to read by first learning speech

  • When comparing brain activity of a skilled reader (while reading) compared with a two month old baby who is being spoken to by a loved one, identical areas of the brain light up

  • The part of our brain that recognizes letters is originally wired to recognize faces

  • Skilled readers are left-brain readers

First Things First

​

​

The reality is we have a literacy problem nationwide.  67% of fourth grade students are not reading proficiently.  This crosses all ethnic and socio-economic lines.  Furthermore, some students are making passing grades and still not reading on grade level.  This is why 92% believe that their child is reading at or above grade level.

 

This is an educational crisis that has NOTHING to do with our children's intelligence.

​

I am here to simplify the research while focusing on brain development and reading acquisition. I will show you how your child's brain learns to read through proven, evidence-based strategies and activities that build reading and take less than fifteen minutes a day.

The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever.
