Where are you in your journey?

Every family's journey looks a little different. Start with the situation that best matches where you are today.

1. I'm worried my child might have dyslexia.

Noticing concerns is not a failure—it’s an act of advocacy.

Start with Dyslexia 101 to learn what dyslexia is (and isn't), common warning signs by age, and what effective reading instruction looks like.

This is a good place to start if...

  • Your child struggles with reading or spelling.
  • Progress has been slower than expected.
  • You're wondering whether dyslexia could be part of the picture.

2. I'm overwhelmed and don't know what to do first.

You don't have to figure everything out alone.

The Struggling Reader Roadmap walks you through the process step by step, helping you understand what to do first, what to watch for, and when additional support may be helpful.

This is a good place to start if...

  • You're feeling overwhelmed.
  • You've received conflicting advice.
  • You want a clear plan before making decisions.

3. I think my child needs professional help.

If you're ready to move beyond researching and would like personalized guidance, begin with a free 15-minute consultation.

Together, we'll discuss your child's reading history, current concerns, and determine whether reading therapy, a screening, a comprehensive evaluation, or another next step is most appropriate.

This is a good place to start if...

  • You're ready to talk through your child's needs.
  • You'd like individualized recommendations.
  • You're considering reading therapy, a reading screening, or an evaluation.

4. I think our curriculum isn't working.

Not every reading curriculum provides the instruction struggling readers need.

The Curriculum Lab offers structured literacy reviews, comparisons, and guidance to help you choose materials that align with the Science of Reading.

This is a good place to start if...

  • You're homeschooling.
  • You're choosing a new curriculum.
  • You want to strengthen what you're already using.

5. I want to explore reading therapy.

Reading therapy provides explicit, systematic instruction designed for students with dyslexia and other reading difficulties.

Learn how therapy works, explore available intervention programs, and understand what to expect before getting started.

This is a good place to start if...

  • Your child needs more intensive support.
  • Previous interventions haven't been enough.
  • You're ready to explore therapy options.
