Our Mission

Steamboat Reading creates a community of support for struggling readers and their families through one-on-one tutoring, formal evaluations, advocacy, parent education, and dyslexia awareness.

 
 

FACTS

Struggling readers and writers are often multi-dimensional, out-of-the-box thinkers who are highly creative and successful in many areas including arts, music, finance, mathematics, design, and engineering.

 

20%

100%

STUDENTS WITH DYSLEXIA CAN LEARN TO READ

when instruction is explicit and systematic, multisensory, consistent and frequent, language-based, individualized and emotionally reinforcing.

 
 

80%

ADVOCACY

We help you to understand and navigate the IEP, 504, or READ plan process at your school.  We can advocate by explaining the testing that your child has completed, determining appropriate services and supports for your child, and helping to understand the school's plan.

ASSESSMENT

We offer a comprehensive evaluation, a literacy evaluation, and instructional assessments.  Assessments vary in the information they provide and the duration of evaluation time. These assessment sessions are used to evaluate your child’s skills and determine what kinds of support would benefit your child.  You receive a written report and oral interpretation of the results.

PARENT RESOURCE GROUP

This was created to support and provide education for parents of children with learning differences.  A learning difference can be something diagnosed, like dyslexia, dysgraphia, or ADHD, or something that causes a challenge for a child to learn.
