An understanding of the phonetic structure of the English language is a must if a poor reader is to become a good reader. 
The Need
Reading is the crucial skill on which all other academic skills depend. Every student must become proficient in reading or risk a lifetime of mediocrity and frustration.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics, the number of children reading below proficiency in Massachusetts is 51 percent!.

For millions of people, reading is a mysterious, frustrating process. In our current economic crisis, our schools cannot adequately meet the needs of our children, and they are suffering the consequences. Children with poor reading skills frequently.

*Receive poor grades
*Experience frustration and anger
*Suffer from low self-esteem
*Act out in class
*Dislike school
*Fail to reach their potential

Reading is the key to learning, but learning to read doesn’t have to be difficult!  Written language is a code that must be learned in the same way that mathematics is learned.  The Academic Associates Reading Program streamlines the decoding process and eliminates the need for guesswork, so students gain confidence and learn the word-attack skills necessary to approach the 1,000,000 words in the English language.

We meet the needs of students of all ages:

Struggling readers experience tremendous gains as they acquire the word attack skills they need to become confident, successful readers. Our students typically gain 2-4 grade levels in 30-60 hours of instruction!

Students with learning differences progress to their maximum potential, even when other methods have failed. Children diagnosed with dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, auditory processing deficit, autism, and developmental delay have all benefited remarkably from our program. While some disabilities cannot be completely overcome, the brain is capable of learning to work around many of them.

New readers are gently led through a series of easy steps.   As they respond, they naturally begin to read. Children who step into reading with the Academic Associates Program receive an unparalleled foundation for a lifetime of successful reading and will approach their academic careers with confidence. 

Readers who already excel receive a welcome boost and become the best they can possibly be in today’s competitive world.
