Unfortunately, many children do not “grow out” of the difficulties they experience. As time passes, your child may experience frustration mastering grade-level skills. According to Literacy Project Foundation, “A child is 90% likely to remain a poor reader at the end of the fourth grade if the child is a poor reader at the end of first grade.” There is plenty of reason for hope, however. Early intervention for struggling readers has shown to be crucial and beneficial.
One in five students is affected by dyslexia or other reading disabilities. Our multi-sensory, evidence – based program is designed to help all students, regardless of disability.
You may consider bringing your child to St. Johns Reading Room for a reading evaluation. The evaluation will provide information on the severity of the struggle, and the areas in need of improvement.
Our program incorporates strategies and interventions that have proven to be successful across a wide-range of learners. St. Johns Reading Room uses instructional methods from LiPS, UFLI, and Orton-Gillingham that address reading difficulties at the foundational level. If your child’s struggle is primarily reading words and sentences, this program is designed to meet those needs.
See the above section, “How to Begin” for information on our enrollment process.
The first step is to email us at info@stjohnsreadingroom.com or give us a call at (904) 513-0127 to begin scheduling your evaluation and data review meetings.
Please contact St. Johns Reading Room for current hourly rates and length of treatment specific to your child’s needs.
Depending on various factors (age of child, degree of deficits, frequency of treatment), a full intervention usually takes 5-10 months. The goal is to catch your child up to grade-level expectations, and it is common for children to make years of gain in this time period.
St. Johns Reading Room is more than homework help or quick letter grade boosting. We teach you how to read following our specialized intervention curriculum.
Reading only improves through practice. While there will not be any graded assignments, St. Johns Reading Room will require newly learned skills to be practiced frequently at home. All materials needed for this practice will be provided to you. Students earn rewards through completing homework activities, and often are motivated and excited to do so. It is common for kids to look forward to our game based, interactive homework activities.
No, St. Johns Reading Room is currently a fee-for-service provider.
