Faq

What is the cost of each session?

Each session costs $15-$25 per hour. We are willing to work with families who are on a tight budget.

How many youth can take one session?

We prefer small groups so allow 10-12 youth per session.

How often do you meet?

Once or twice a week virtually.

How do you measure success?

We have a short pre-assessment at the beginning. Next we take observational notes, review the reader’s work, and at the end he or she can take our oral reading assessment online. 

We also review the emotional satisfaction of the child and family.
