Learning isn't only about seeing. Lessons engage sight, sound, and touch at the same time to build strong, lasting pathways for reading and spelling—making abstract things like letter sounds concrete and memorable.
The approach
A gold-standard method for dyslexia
Rock Solid Reading is built on the Orton-Gillingham approach—trusted by educators worldwide as the most effective way to teach reading and spelling to students with dyslexia. It doesn't just teach reading; it reshapes how a child's brain approaches language.
We build the foundation brick by brick. Skills are taught in a logical order, simplest to most complex, so there are no gaps and none of the confusion that traditional reading instruction can create for a child with dyslexia.
Every child's path with dyslexia is different. Each lesson is adapted to your student—progress is checked continuously and instruction is tuned to their real areas of difficulty, so they're always challenged but never overwhelmed.
What to expect
Simple to start, steady to grow
No pressure, no jargon—just a clear path from that first hello to a child who reads with confidence.
We talk
A relaxed, no-pressure conversation about what your child is finding hard and what you're hoping for.
We meet online
One-on-one lessons from the comfort of home, scheduled around your family's week—no driving, no waiting rooms.
Confidence builds
Small, consistent wins add up. Reading stops being a battle and starts becoming something your child can do.
The Rock Solid promise
Progress that reaches past the page
The goal is for students with dyslexia to finally read and spell with ease. What that unlocks tends to reach well beyond the lesson.
Confidence soars
As small, consistent wins add up, a child's belief in themselves grows—often the most lasting change of all.
Learning that fits your life
Lessons happen online, from home, scheduled around the reality of a busy family week.
