We partner with secondary schools to ensure that struggling readers catch up rapidly & completely. Poor reading is a teaching problem. We change the teaching.

Our mission is to eradicate adolescent illiteracy. No student should leave school unable to read well, regardless of background. If you believe this too, we'd love to hear from you. thinkingreading.com/contact

FAQ: How long does the programme take? Students stay on it until they have caught up completely. The time depends on how far behind they are & how rapidly they progress. Data shows typical progress is 2 months per 30 min lesson & takes average 6 months to gain 5 years or more in their reading.
