We have had great success with Literacy Specialists. This past school year, our youngest daughter struggled with reading, writing, and spelling. After several failed attempts to get her the help she needed, we were referred to Joanna at Literacy Specialists. Joanna was patient and kind. She always managed to find fun and creative ways to approach their lessons. This summer my daughter actually enjoys going to the library and selecting books!

My son’s handwriting was illegible. He claimed it didn’t matter because he’s just going to use his computer. While I understand that he and his friends will probably rely on their computers, I did some research and found there are many benefits to learning to write by hand. I contacted Literacy Specialists and thankfully, they were able to help him. I would recommend Literacy Specialists. My son’s handwriting has definitely improved.

My daughter dreaded every writing assignment. She convinced herself that she just could not spell. Elaine not only introduced a variety of spelling strategies to boost her confidence but also encouraged her recognize and reframe her negative self-talk. I am very grateful that Literacy Specialists introduced us to Elaine. She has a calm, gentle demeanor that truly resonated with my daughter.

Two years ago, our son was diagnosed with dyslexia. At the time of his diagnosis, we were so worried about the academic and social pressures that he would likely face going forward. Luckily, another parent suggested that we contact Laura at Literacy Specialists. I cannot stress just how much our son has improved with Laura’s thoughtful and nurturing guidance. Laura is able to break down spelling and reading into smaller, more manageable tasks. She has also done a great job helping my dyslexic son recognize his many talents and strengths!
