We use only individualized, one-on-one reading comprehension instruction. Since every student is different it is necessary to tailor the reading comprehension to fit the learning styles of the students. That's why we use Dr. Larman's Scientific Reading Method (SRM). It is a one-on-one program that is backed by scientific research. We guarantee SRM to be the best program for your son or daughter.

This method is used with students from Kindergarten through Middle School. It works with all age kids because it is an individualized flexible program, with built in intrinsic rewards and extrinsic rewards. We do have all traditional methods to teach reading on hand, including Linda Mood Bell, but nothing comes close to the Scientific Reading Method.

The private schools, public schools and other learning centers have not been trained in our New Reading Comprehension Method. Only our instructors know how to instruct this terrific new method called: Dr. Larman's Scientific Reading Method (SRM)
