“We want stronger reading and writing, in both languages.”

Literacy that works across English and Spanish

Best for: Families who speak Spanish, English or both at home

Why it works

Reading and writing instruction in English and Spanish, from a certified bilingual educator with a decade of experience as a literacy coach.

Skills built in one language carry into the other, so a learner’s Spanish and English grow together.

What it builds

- Stronger reading comprehension

- Clearer, more confident writing

- Skills that transfer between languages

## What sessions look like

1. An assessment of literacy skills in both languages

2. Research-based phonics, fluency and comprehension work

3. Writing instruction grounded in Abydos and Empowering Writers training

4. Conversations with the family in their own language

## Not quite it? Two other ways in

They can be combined. The free consultation is where we work out the mix.

## Common questions

Does my child need to be fluent in both languages?

No. Some learners understand Spanish but rarely speak it, some move easily between the two, and some are just starting Spanish. We begin where your learner is.

Does reading in Spanish help with English?

Yes. Reading skills carry from one language to the other, so what a learner builds in Spanish strengthens their English too, and the other way round.

Can you help with school assignments too?

Yes. Sessions can include current schoolwork, though the emphasis stays on building lasting skills rather than finishing tonight’s homework.

What if we only want instruction in one language?

Then sessions are in that language. Many families choose one.
