 January is the time of resolutions to ensure a better new year. Since we’re all pushing the reset button after a little bit of holiday slacking, let’s look at some New Year’s resolutions that could help make your child – or maybe yourself – a better reader or a student.  Don’t put it off – get help now.  This resolution is aimed at parents who have been concerned about their child’s performance in school but have taken a wait-and-see attitude. Well, you’ve waited. Are grades betting better? Has your child’s reading picked up? Is there a better attitude toward school?   ..read more

All of us at Reading Success Plus want to wish our students and their families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Whether you are eagerly anticipating a big trip or looking forward to a quiet time at home, we hope you have a joyful season enjoying the company of family and friends.   We also have one holiday suggestion that probably isn’t on any of our students’ Santa lists. Consider taking a bit of time over your break for tutoring. It can be less time than usual – perhaps an hour a week instead of two – or online instead of person.   But even if you do less than you usually do ..read more

Now that school has been in session for several weeks, parents and guardians have a sense of how their child is doing. For some, that might be concerning.  Early struggles could have a lot of causes. Some kids need time to adjust to a new teacher, perhaps a new school and different classmates. Others may be challenged by the difficulty of lessons as they move up a grade. And for some, the stress of adding athletics, music lessons or other non-academic activities into their schedules may take a toll on schoolwork.  So, is this problem something you can cure with patience, time-managem ..read more

It’s time.  The days are getting shorter, summer activities are winding down, and school sports, band camps, and other activities are gearing up. It’s time to start thinking about going back to school.  And really, it’s time to get past thinking and to start planning. For families with children who have difficulty in school or have learning disabilities, that is far more complicated than stocking up on notebooks and new shoes.  “It’s a grind for our kids,” says Lawrence Kloth, co-founder of Reading Success Plus. “They’ve had two and a half months of freedom, and now it’s gone ..read more

Coaching shows students, parents path to success

A diagnosis of dyslexia or a similar learning disorder prompts a stream of questions. What does dyslexia mean? Why does my child have it? Where does it come from? What can we do about it?  Virtually all of the families we see at Reading Success Plus have such questions, and rightfully so. Dyslexia is not widely understood, and much of what the average person can tell you about it is, quite frankly, wrong.  Misinformation can cause unnecessary anxiety, even panic, about a condition that can be managed. Misunderstanding can lead to parent-child conflict, contentious relationships with ..read more

Tutoring outside school hours may be one of the most beneficial activities a family can take on. However, we know it isn’t always easy, with busy schedules, childcare and transportation challenges, and more.  Online tutoring during the summer is one way to make it simpler.  While we previously have talked about the advantages of online tutoring, even families who have been doing in-person lessons may want to consider it once summer vacation rolls around.  “People are thinking about their cottages and vacations and camping,” says Lawrence Kloth, co-founder of Reading Success ..read more

For families with school-aged children, August and early September can be swallowed up by back-to-school worries. Everybody has supplies to buy, wardrobes to update, bus routes to learn.   But for parents of children with learning difficulties or disabilities – and of course, for those youngsters – concerns about the start of school go deeper. For kids scarred by academic struggles or failure, the return to the classroom can be a stomach-churning, anxiety-ridden experience.   “It’s a very stressful time for people, especially our population,” says Lawrence Kloth, co-founder ..read more
