Our Mission at Young Readers Academy
At Young Readers Academy, our mission is to help children feel inspired, supported, and confident as they learn to read.
We believe learning should be fun, engaging, and personalized. Every lesson is crafted to fit your child’s needs so they feel excited to learn and proud of their progress.
Does Your Child Struggle With…
Guessing words instead of sounding them out
Mixing up or forgetting letter sounds
Reading very slowly, even when they know the sounds
Getting frustrated or shutting down during reading time
Feeling like they’re “not good at reading”
You’re not alone and you don’t have to figure this out on your own.
