1-on-1 Reading Diagnostic + 90-Day Action Plan

In one 60-minute session, see the full picture of your child as a reader — skills AND engagement.

A standardized test can tell you your child's decoding speed. It can't tell you if they've lost confidence, if they avoid books, or if they've started to believe they're not a reader. This diagnostic sees both the skills and the whole child—what they can do and what's holding them back emotionally.

Three Steps to Reading Clarity

1

Book Your Session

$49 one-time. No subscription. One 60-minute 1-on-1 session on Zoom with an IRD Expert Teacher. You choose the time that works for your family.

Skills Assessment + Engagement Observation

Your child has a real reading experience with our expert teacher. We assess: decoding accuracy, fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary. We also observe confidence, engagement, and reading identity—the emotional side that matters most.

Delivered within 48 hours. A week-by-week plan with named book titles, specific skill exercises, and daily activities. Built on IRD's Raising Skilled Readers curriculum—refined across five decades.

Everything You Walk Away With

60-Minute 1-on-1 Diagnostic

A focused, expert-led session where your child is fully assessed on both skills and engagement.

Scored Assessment Report

A detailed report showing exactly where your child stands across all key reading competencies.

90-Day Action Plan

Week-by-week guidance with specific books, exercises, and daily activities tailored to your child's needs.

Expert Teacher Observations

Insights into your child's reading identity, confidence, and engagement—what matters most.

This Isn't Something You Can Put Together Yourself

It takes a trained expert to distinguish between "can't read" and "won't read." The difference matters because the interventions are completely different. IRD's curriculum has been refined across five decades of working with readers of all levels. It's not assembled from blog posts or generic advice—it's built on evidence and deep expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly happens during the 60-minute session?
Your child will have a guided reading experience with an IRD expert teacher. They'll read passages at different levels, answer comprehension questions, and engage in conversation about their reading. The teacher observes skill and engagement throughout.
What age children can be evaluated?
We evaluate children ages 5-18. Whether your child is learning to read or reading at an advanced level, we have frameworks for every stage.
Is this just a sales pitch for tutoring?
No. The diagnostic stands alone. You'll receive a complete action plan with specific books and exercises you can implement yourself. If you want ongoing support, tutoring is an option—but the diagnostic is valuable on its own.
What if I don't want to continue with tutoring?
That's completely fine. Your 90-day action plan is detailed enough to guide your own instruction at home. Many families implement it with great results without our tutoring program.
If I enroll in tutoring, how does the $49 credit work?
If you enroll in our Tutoring Program within 48 hours of your diagnostic, the full $49 applies as a credit toward your first month's tuition. So a $349/mo 1-on-1 program costs $300 for your first month.
