Kids Up

Is your child or teen reading below grade level? 
Is spelling a struggle?
Is it affecting their self-confidence? 

At Kids Up Reading Coaches we help students catch up to their peers in MONTHS, not years, with:

  • 1-on-1, evidence-based instruction, customized to YOUR student’s needs
  • 30/45/60 minute sessions over Zoom, to accommodate your schedule
  • Weekly progress updates for parents

We follow the Science of Reading and use the Orton-Gillingham approach to phonics. We work with students in grades 1-12, including those with dyslexia, learning disabilities in reading and writing, ADHD, ASD, and more. 

Our Guarantee: Try it for a week. Love it, or it’s on us!
