Our reading program is a multi-sensory approach to reading and language. The program focuses on developing foundational skills in reading such as phonological awareness, decoding, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and fluency as well as cognitive skills such as working memory, attention, processing, and sequencing skills. An initial assessment will be administered to help your child get started with the appropriate reading level. By taking the initial assessment, you will then be assigned specific exercises to help you strengthen your skills.

These exercises turn reading into fun games, using interactive graphics (animals, aliens, etc.). These exercises focus on phonics, sound pairs, contrasting sound pairs, and word contrasts (antonyms vs synonyms). The other portion of the reading program, Reading Assistant Plus, gives the student a large library of books to choose from and read online at their tested reading level. This portion allows students to practice pronunciation, vocabulary, and fluency. The benefit of doing the Fast Forward and Reading Assistant Plus programs at the same time, is to allow the student to strengthen their foundational skills while also applying those skills in an interactive environment that provides immediate, real-time feedback. By doing this program through our clinic, you will have access to a cognitive trainer to help run sessions more smoothly, add additional learning modalities to the program, and motivate and encourage students to succeed.

The clinic is now offering Telehealth to clients in California, Texas, and Florida!
