Reading and Comprehension Skill Training
Reading (as they say) is fundamental. To learn well, we have to read well — skilled readers perform better in every subject. Reading well doesn’t mean reading everything as fast as possible, but that we read in the best way possible to get what we want out of our material. As it turns out, when we read efficiently, we also end up reading a lot faster and with a lot more satisfaction.
Unfortunately, too many students not only read slowly, but often with difficulty. They read without easy comprehension and without enjoyment, and cannot use reading as the incredibly helpful tool that it is.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Our reading program helps develop skilled, enthusiastic readers at any age.
The core components of our approach:
Phrase Reading: A technique designed for improved language processing and ‘reading fluency’. Learning to phrase read means increasing your reading rate by 100%, 200% or more, and improving comprehension and retention in everything, often to astonishing degrees. Phrase reading often remediates even stubborn skill gaps.
CALM — Context Annotation Layering and Monitoring: An acronym representing the four major keys to complete comprehension and masterful reading. Students learn how to adjust their approach to reading, depending on the context of their material.
Space-Reading and Scanning Techniques: Designed to read material at 1000 wpm (words per minute) or more.
Strengthen Skills, build confidence and develop motivation. It will bring a lifetime of unlimited benefits.
Courses generally run 3 - 6 sessions. For elementary school students through adult learners and professionals. Online instruction is available.
