Reading tuition
Dyslexia tutoring and catch-up literacy instruction
For struggling readers who have dyslexia, learning difficulties or other literacy issues.
- Does your child or student struggle with literacy?
- Are you an adult who wants to improve your reading and writing skills?
- Have you or someone you know been diagnosed with dyslexia (or suspect dyslexia as a cause for reading difficulties)?
Learning to read and write isn’t something that ‘just’ happens through immersion or exposure. It’s a complex skill that has to be explicitly taught.
The good news is, it’s never too early or too late to learn. With a multisensory, evidence-based approach, you can improve your reading and learning confidence at any age.

Evidence-based instruction in reading, spelling and writing
What we do
Read Aspire provides evidence-based instruction in reading, spelling and writing.
We work with students of all ages and offer personalised, 1 to 1 learning programs that meet students where they are at.
Learning is engaging, efficient and effective. We work with readers aged pre-K to adult. Our resources are always age-appropriate. If you’re an older student, you won’t get pretty clip art or little-kids fonts.
How it works
Read Aspire is an online teaching service. That means we support families wherever they are, as long as there’s a reasonable internet service.
Lessons are taught using Zoom. We use a mix of:
- interactive, online learning tools
- fun games to reinforce concepts
- physical and online manipulatives for word work
- student whiteboards for quick-response writing practice
- oral and listening activities
- engaging decodable readers and background knowledge-building short passages
- PDF workbooks and activities
Expect to learn:
- sound-symbol correspondences
- morphology
- eytomology
- how sentences (and paragraphs) work
- strategies for spelling high frequency words, single syllable and multisyllablic words. Also learn common ‘rules’ or patterns that help explain why we spell certain words the way we do
We encourage review and regular practice and highly recommend a minimum of 2 lessons a week for noticeable momentum in learning.
Our practice is open virtually, 5 days a week, Monday to Friday, including school hours and school holidays.
