Consultation Services
READ Learning consultative services are designed to meet the needs of each individual family. Kelly Steinke, founder of READ Learning is an expert in dyslexia and learning disabilities and is well versed in special education policy and procedure, response to intervention, 504 Plans/IEPs, and has many years experience working collaboratively with families whose children have learning differences. The students we work with learn differently and need to be taught in a way that makes sense to them. Many of our students are dyslexic, some have gifted areas, some are diagnosed with ADHD or other learning differences, while others have no diagnosis at all.
Educational Consult
Educational consults will answer your questions and determine if our services are the right fit for your child. These appointments include a discussion about your child’s learning needs and goals. There is an assessment portion where the child will be given 4-5 brief assessments. Assessment results will determine a starting point and road map for lessons.
Results and professional recommendations are provided immediately. Educational consultations are scheduled for 60 minutes in length and are $190.
Diagnostic Consults
Diagnostic Consultations will reveal whether or not your child is at risk for dyslexia and whether or not they would be a good candidate for weekly targeted Orton Gillingham based reading and spelling lessons or formal dyslexia testing. These appointments include everything listed in the educational consultation as well as more in depth information gathering. We'll conduct a family/child history interview, a review of work samples and previous testing from school districts or other specialists, and administer additional screeners to gather more in depth information. Diagnostic Consultations include recommendations for academic accommodations. Accommodations are typically documented and provided at schools through one of the following plans - 504 Plan, IEP, or student support plan. Diagnostic consultations are a necessary first step if you are considering formal dyslexia testing with our diagnostician.
Results and professional recommendations are provided immediately. Diagnostic consultations are 90 minutes in length and are $240.
