Dyslexia One-to-One Tutoring | The Reading Foundation

Expert Dyslexia Support & Special Needs Education Programs

One-to-One Reading Support Backed by Science

Science-backed, one-to-one instruction for neurodivergent learners, including students with dyslexia, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and twice-exceptional profiles.

A Specialized Education Center Built for Neurodiversity

The Reading Foundation is a special education center with decades of experience supporting neurodivergent learners. We celebrate neurodiversity and understand that every brain learns differently. Whether your child is neurodiverse, neurotypical but struggling, or somewhere in between, our clinicians are trained to meet them exactly where they are.

Our Discover Reading© program is grounded in the science of reading and designed specifically for students whose learning profiles fall outside the mainstream, including those with dyslexia, ADHD, ASD, and twice-exceptional (2e) traits.

What Is Dyslexia and How Can We Help?

Dyslexia is a language-based learning disability that affects word reading, decoding, and spelling. It stems from challenges with phonemic awareness: the ability to identify and manipulate sounds in spoken language. Without targeted support, these gaps can compound over time.

Many families start their search looking for an online dyslexia tutoring option, and what they find at The Reading Foundation is something more structured and more effective than traditional tutoring. Our Discover Reading© program addresses the root causes of reading difficulty, not just the surface symptoms.

Early intervention matters. Our early childhood special education approach means we can begin building foundational literacy skills before a child falls significantly behind, giving them the best possible start.

How Our Special Education Works

Unlike group special needs classes, every session at The Reading Foundation is one-to-one. This means your child gets the full attention of a trained specialist every time, no distractions, no one-size-fits-all lessons.

Comprehensive Assessment

We begin with a thorough evaluation to understand your child’s current performance, learning profile, and goals. This drives everything that follows.

Personalized Program Design

Using data from our assessment, we design a special program plan specific to your child, including estimated hours to close identified gaps.

One-to-One Instruction

Sessions take place at one of our special education center locations or online via our virtual learning platform.

Progress Monitoring & Adjustment

We track progress consistently and adjust the program to keep your child on a trajectory toward their academic potential.

Results That Build Confidence

The Discover Reading^© program doesn’t just improve skills – it transforms self-esteem. Our decades of experience working with neurodiverse learners have shown that students often gain confidence, independence, and a renewed love of learning through our targeted approach.

How Long Does It Take?

Thanks to a robust database built by Dr. Steve Truch, we can estimate the number of hours a student may need to close the gap between their current performance and their academic potential. This helps families plan a program that delivers real, measurable progress.
