"We tried so many things that didn't work - but this program is awesome! Nate went from reading 12 words per minute to 75 words per minute this year. His special ed teacher is SO excited for him - and Nate is so proud of himself. Thank you!!"

Does this sound familiar?
Is your child having a hard time learning letter sounds and sounding out simple words? Does homework time often end in tears and frustration?
Is it breaking your heart to see them fall behind and lose confidence? Are you worried that something is wrong?
Have you invested time and money in reading programs that haven't worked? Do you feel overwhelmed and unsure what to do next?
Don't worry, we can help!
By targeting the root cause of reading difficulties, we accelerate reading progress and strengthen neural pathways to create
confident readers.
The data shows our students make HUGE progress in as little as 6 weeks. YES! Our lessons work! Even if your child...
has dyslexia, ADHD, autism or developmental delays
forgets letter names, confuses letter sounds, or struggles to sound out words
hasn't found success with other programs in the past
Every year you "wait and see" is another year they fall further behind.
Praise From Parents
"He has jumped over a year ahead"

"An answer to many prayers"
"Reading Ramp has been an answer to many prayers. We've searched for years for this kind of instruction for our daughter who struggles with dyslexia. Our daughter can now get face to face attention in the comfort of her own home at a price we can afford."

A Closer Look at the Curriculum
At the core of the Reading Ramp program is an online structured literacy curriculum grounded in the Science of Reading that is effective for ALL students - particularly those with dyslexia and other reading difficulties.
Sequential, Explicit, Formative
Structured scope and sequence comprised of 137 Lessons that teach phonics, phonological awareness, spelling, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension via interactive Google slides, worksheets, activities, and games.
Open-and-Go Simplicity
This program allows tutors, teachers, and even parents to use the SAME methods that professional reading therapists use. The interface is intuitive enough to use without preparation, but in-depth lesson guides are also included.
Flexible, Fun, Engaging
Teachers share their computer screen over Zoom, and students use a computer, laptop or tablet. Many of the activities are interactive, allowing the student to type, draw, and drag-and-drop elements to increase engagement.
"Our daughter's reading level went up a whole grade level in just the first 6 weeks of lessons. While that is truly impressive, more important to us, her confidence has skyrocketed!"
- Hannah

Frequently Asked Questions
1. My child has a learning difference. Will these lessons be a good fit?
YES! Our reading lessons work great for neuro-typical kids, but most of our students have some kind of learning disability or developmental delay. The curriculum works for kids with dyslexia and/or phonological awareness deficits, ADHD, autism, auditory processing disorder, speech disorders, low IQ, undiagnosed disabilities and other difficulties.
2. How are these lessons different from regular reading tutoring?
Our reading specialists use a research-based Science of Reading (SoR) curriculum that combines exercises in phonemic awareness, synthetic phonics, orthographic mapping and Orton-Gillingham methods to ensure mastery. Working 1-on-1 with the students several times a week provides consistent practice and reinforcement. The neural pathways necessary for reading become stronger and stronger, and the child’s orthographic mapping system becomes efficient at storing and retrieving words.
3. What age is best for this program?
The curriculum begins with letter sounds and moves up to about a 8th grade level, so most of our students are between the ages of 5 and 10 - but the program works great for older students who are reading below grade level as well.
4. How do the lessons work? When, how often, etc?
Our students typically meet with their teacher over zoom for four 25-minute sessions per week. The lessons are usually at the same time each day. (for instance, Monday through Thursday at noon). You are charged weekly. We understand that juggling family schedules can get crazy, so you can cancel or reschedule any lesson with 24 hours notice – or take a longer break for vacation or illness.
