We are parents, tutors, educators, volunteers, and activists involved in helping students with severe reading deficits. We focus on helping older students with severe deficits, typically reading at grade-2 or less.
We don't believe in accommodations, and we think putting a struggling reader into an LD classroom is a tragedy. Reading is simply a set of skills that your child must practice until they are automatic and error-free.
This meetup is for parents. We will be talking bluntly about reading deficits, and what must be done to fix them and help a child catch up with his peers. You are welcome to bring your struggling reader along.
