OUR PROGRAM
Ready To Be Ready is a unique literacy program because we go beyond tutoring a child. Using research-based assessment we determine the underlying causes associated with reading difficulty. We are an intervention instructional program providing one-to-one and/or small group reading intervention instruction at a child’s instructional level. We instruct each child towards reaching their highest potential.
