About Rhonda

Dear parents, grandparents, friends, and teachers:

Like so many parents, my children struggled with reading -- and finding the right reading program to help them was difficult. In 2001, I discovered Read Right methodology developed by Dr. Dee Tadlock, an expert in both learning theory and reading.

I learned from her that most reading problems are LEARNED and not the result of brain deficits. I was so fascinated with her theory that I dedicated my Masters in Public Administration degree to a study of education policies and practices related to reading instruction. What I learned from that multi-year journey is that U.S. instructional practices for reading contribute significantly to the struggles MOST children and teens experience with reading.

Read Right tutors use the right individualized strategies to help each struggling reader build a new neural network specifically for reading excellence. By "excellence" Read Right means: the reader always accurately comprehends what they are reading, recognizes when they need to figure out the meaning of new vocabulary, and always reads aloud as naturally as they speak.

The process begins with a brief consultation to identify your student's optimum reading range. If the student is a non-reader, we'll assess for basic phonics knowledge. During the consultation your student will be introduced to Read Right's core instructional strategy. You are welcome to observe throughout.

Read Right methodology helped both of my children become successful readers when they were teens. Now, my oldest has a six-year-old son. Our whole family used Dr. Tadlock's methods for early reading development to help my grandson become a reader. He started kindergarten reading at a Grade 1 level. Now 6, his favorite books to read are Grade 2/3 science-related books. He loves to learn new vocabulary!

With confidence, I recommend Read Right methodology to you regardless of the degree of deficit. This includes mild to severe reading problems, dyslexia, ADD/ADHD, Autism spectrum disorders, Tourettes, and even Down syndrome.

Read Right Systems guarantees your student will progress within eight sessions, based upon an analysis of symptom reduction. This is a money-back guarantee.

I've been fortunate to work directly with Dr. Tadlock whenever she needed me for the past 20 years. Now, I'm a Read Right tutor. If my schedule does not align with yours, I'll connect you to a Read Right tutor whose schedule works for you.

Read Right methodology is amazing. From both personal experience and academic study, I highly recommend it.

I love helping students of all ages discover they have the internal power to become excellent readers. Their confidence begins to skyrocket the very first time they read a passage of text with oral reading excellence and full comprehension. I've been blessed to do many things in my life, and nothing is more satisfying than helping a student become a reader!
