We transform your child's reading struggles into success in school and beyond

... so you never have another battle over homework again.

Did you know...

1 in 4 Ontario students are reading below grade level by Grade 3

Could your child be one of them?

How It Starts

You notice your child guessing words, avoiding books, or melting down during homework… and you're not sure how to help.

Perhaps you have had your own post-homework meltdown in the other room, but don't worry...

You're Not Alone

Kids often learn how to hide what’s hard — and caring parents like you just want guidance rooted in what actually works.

What We Offer

At Thriving Readers, we combine evidence-based structured literacy with joyful, game-based lessons so your child builds strong reading foundations and has fun along the way.

We also partner with you, the parent, offering tools, resources, and clear home support so progress continues beyond each session.
