Easyread System

Although a tutor myself, I recognise that one hour of tuition once or twice a week does not suit everyone.

• there may not be a suitable tutor close to where you live
• your after-school commitments may be great and you cannot fit in an hour after school
• your child may be tired after school and need some down-time to relax
• you may not want the financial commitment of a private tutor every week
• your child may struggle to concentrate for an hour's tuition

If this rings true, then maybe Easyread is the answer.

• Easyread is a British system that provides 5-15 minutes of daily online lessons
• it is based on synthetic phonics (blending the sounds of English together)
• it works to your child's visual strengths whilst building the weaker auditory skills needed for reading and spelling
• it is completely flexible - do it at any time of the day
• there are experienced practioners at the end of the phone to help
• it provides affordable help for your child
• since it is on the internet, it can be accessed in any country around the world

There are many, many parents and teachers who have been delighted with the progress their children have made using this system.

If your child is experiencing difficulty with their reading and spelling I highly recommend this programme.

In addition if your child

• tends to guess at words
• memorises pages of a book
• is bright but somehow not 'getting' reading and spelling
• has a dyslexic diagnosis and you can't get private help for him or her
• enjoys working at the computer and having regular reward games

If you start an Easyread course and you feel it is not appropriate, just ask them to cancel and refund your money, no questions asked.
