Book People Are the Best People

Have you ever seen someone reading in a coffee shop or on a train and knew that you could be friends with that person because he/she was reading a book? Readers attract other readers and are the most interesting and thoughtful conversationalists! In addition, through blogging I have discovered the fabulous international book blogging community! Reading brings people together.

LEARN TO READ NOW

Everyone who can speak English can learn to read. If you are between the ages of 4 and 114, you can learn to read English well. There are simple and easy steps on how to read everything you desire. With a one-on-one reading program, you can develop or sharpen your reading skills.

Reading is not complicated. If you are struggling with reading basics, you may not believe that statement. You may have put out your best efforts and still failed. You may have tried many other programs, including literature snd ielts programs, and yet effective reading evades you or a loved one. It does not have to be that way. If you can speak English, you can learn to read English. As with all things in life, it will be easier for some than for others, but you [or your loved one] can make your dream of literacy come true.

Many people find reading frustrating, difficult, or mentally straining. The main reason for this is that they are reading the wrong way! It is not their fault. They are only doing what they have been taught. A little over 100 years ago almost everybody could read well. Then a “new and improved” method was introduced which has drastically reduced reading skills!

Popular teaching methods in schools all over North America tell students to memorize words. These are called sight words. Students are expected to learn to read by memorizing common words. Some students have excellent memories and will do well in this system, but many will not. They will struggle and hate reading. Performance in other subjects will likely suffer because of poor reading skills. Some will not learn to read at all and try to cover up what they consider to be an embarrassing failure. However, EVERY single student - no matter how good their memory - will be limited. Consider that the English language has between 750,000 and 1,000,000 words. No one can memorize all those words! But with our method, anyone can easily learn to read the majority of them.

English is one of the most colourful and descriptive languages on earth. We borrow words from other languages and adopt them into our own. Despite this, almost 90% of the English language words are either totally phonetic or have large phonetic parts. A few words are exceptions, but these words can be easily learned. If you enroll in a program, you will have a one-on-one Reading Instructor Specialist to guide you into the wonderful world of words.
