The RESULTS ARE STUDENTS ARE GETTING
What Parents are Saying
ReadXYZ has been an answer to many prayers. We've searched for years for this kind of instruction for our daughter who struggles with dyslexia. We've been frustrated in the past with the high costs associated with this kind of tutoring as well as the time it would take to get her to lessons and back. ReadXYZ has taken both of those frustrations away. Our daughter can now get face to face attention in the comfort of her own home at a price we can afford.
My daughter's teacher is awesome and truly cares about our daughter. She is challenged and learning so much but having fun doing it. In the first six weeks of doing the program, our daughter's reading level went up a whole grade level. While that is truly impressive, more important to us, her confidence has skyrocketed! She now tries to read everything she sees and isn't afraid to tackle harder words. I'm so thankful for the ReadXYZ team and what they have done for our family.
Thank you Lisa, for you guidance and this wonderful program. You have made a huge difference in N's educational journey. We are so grateful.

We are so happy with readxyz.com! My son (age 6) has struggled with learning to read. In kindergarten, he was always behind and first grade started out the same. Then we started readxyz and my son has improved by leaps and bounds in just 4 weeks. His teacher at school commented today that he is doing much better with reading. I think he’ll be caught up to grade level really soon. I’m so glad we found readXYZ!
My 9 year old son’s reading was already close to grade level, but in just 6 weeks he has jumped over a year ahead and is feeling much more confident! My 7 year old daughter has some developmental challenges that affect her learning, but Lisa and the ReadXYZ program have helped her make significant progress.
ReadXYZ really understands dyslexia and teaches in a patient and kind manner. In the past, everyone who has worked with my 9 year old has given up. He is finally making reading progress since he has started tutoring with Lisa. I am very grateful we found ReadXYZ!

We are so thrilled with her progress and I’m glad the data backs up what we are seeing. Her reading has really exploded and I’m so grateful I found your program. I have referred so many friends, I hope they all listen to me and contact you.
Medi is really enjoying your program. She is motivated by the challenges you present and the animals she earns with her progress.
She looks forward to interacting with you because she know there is no pressure and that she is going to have fun.
Thank you for reminding her that learning doesn't have to be a struggle, it can be fun at each stage.
My daughter loves ‘meeting’ with Ronna and reminds me each day of the time to get online! She is patient, kind and my daughter says funny teacher too. 😊 I’m thankful that she gives me updates and ways I can support the tutoring process. I can see the confidence in my daughter growing. Thanks Ronna!

Even if learning to read has been REALLY HARD in the past.
You know your child is bright… but for some reason, reading just won’t “click.”
You’re here because your gut is telling you that something is wrong – your child is falling behind and needs help.
You’re tired of the daily homework battles. You’re worried about your child’s self esteem. He or she doesn’t like school anymore and you’re starting to panic.
You’re here because you don’t really know what to do – but you know deep down that it’s time to do something. And you’re right.
We understand your worries and we’re so glad you found us.
Let us help you, help your child, close the gap.
The results are in and our pilot program was a HUGE success.
All of the kids who participated made significant gains – improving an average of 10 months in only 8 hours of structured literacy instruction. Most importantly, their confidence has skyrocketed.
Why is our program so successful? Our 1-on-1 teachers use a research-based curriculum that combines exercises in phonemic awareness, synthetic phonics and fluency to fix the root of the reading problem.

We are here to help you 6 days a week and respond within 24 hours. Plus, you can find most answers to your questions right here.
We teach kids from 5 to 17. We specialize in helping new and struggling readers learn to read fluently.
We use a research-based curriculum that combines exercises in phonemic awareness, synthetic phonics and fluency to ensure systematic mastery.
Working 1-on-1 with the students several times a week provides consistent practice and reinforcement. The neural pathways necessary for reading become stronger and stronger, and the child’s orthographic mapping system becomes more efficient at storing and retrieving words.
Yes! All kids learn to read the same way, but some take more time and one-on-one, explicit instruction. We have experience in teaching kids with a variety of learning disabilities and intellectual disabilities (including but not limited to dyslexia, dysgraphia, auditory processing disorder, speech language disorders, ADHD, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, FAS, brain injury, etc.) If your child can see, hear, and is fairly verbal, he or she is a good fit for readXYZ.
Your child needs the following:
- Stable internet connection
- Computer (laptop, desktop or Chromebook)
- Zoom app (free download)
- speaker and microphone (or headset)
We can charge almost any type of debit or credit card. Payments are charged once a week. Change or cancel lesson packages at any time.
We understand that juggling family schedules can get crazy. You can reschedule any lesson with 24 hours notice – it just takes a few clicks.
Yes, but better.
Orton-Gillingham was one of the first teaching approaches specifically designed to help struggling readers. Many dyslexia advocates recommend Orton-Gillingham based programs (Barton, Wilson, SPIRE, Neuhaus, etc). These programs can be effective, but they take a long time (2 or 3 years) and the child usually plateaus below grade level and still lacks true fluency. Many OG programs do not adequately address the root cause of reading problems (usually a deficit in phonological awareness).
Like Orton-Gillingham approaches, readXYZ:
– is explicit, highly structured, multi-sensory, sequential, diagnostic and prescriptive
– systematically teaches the connections between letters and sounds
– includes exercises in blending, segmenting, writing, spelling and fluency
Unlike Orton-Gillingham approaches, readXYZ:
– combines extensive phoneme awareness instruction with phonological blending and phonic decoding practice to address the root cause of reading failure
– is effective for students with and without intellectual disabilities
– is effective for ESL students who are struggling to read English
– is effective for students with receptive or expressive language disorders and other auditory processing and memory difficulties
– yields faster results than other Orton-Gillingham based programs (months instead of years)
