A Reading Comprehension Program That Works!

"Strategic Reading & Writing" ("SR") is a powerful, personalized reading comprehension & writing program. Each student begins with a Diagnostic Assessment that is closely aligned with California Standards & Benchmarks. Our lesson plans focus on the skill gaps identified by the assessment; the exact same skills that are measured in school and on STAR tests. Furthermore, our curriculum integrates local school textbooks and literature to help students apply SR strategies to THEIR schoolwork. Other companies simply assume that students will make these connections on their own.

SR students develop reading comprehension strategies that lead to long-term success in school ... in many subjects!   SR students finish homework more quickly, experience less academic stress, earn higher grades, and increase their academic self-esteem.   SR integrates writing to reinforce key reading comprehension strategies while improving writing skills. The chart below highlights how favorably Strategic Reading compares to programs offered by other learning centers. Click here to schedule your assessment.
