When reading and spelling feels harder than it should

Many children with dyslexia and literacy challenges are bright, capable learners who simply have not received instruction aligned with how the brain develops reading and spelling skills.

Meaningful progress requires more than additional practice. It requires assessment-driven, structured literacy intervention delivered with expertise, precision, and purposeful repetition — helping the brain build and strengthen the foundational pathways needed for reading and spelling so learning becomes more accurate, automatic, and easier over time.

A Clear Way Forward

When instruction is structured, sequential, and guided by assessment, progress becomes more consistent and meaningful.

You don't need to keep piecing this together.

Ripple Tree Learning was created to bring together structured literacy expertise, professional experience, practical application, and lived parent experience into a clearer, more connected approach to literacy development — helping families move beyond confusion and trial-and-error with greater clarity, confidence, and direction.

Start with Understanding

When reading and spelling progress feels unclear, it can be difficult to know what to focus on next. Every family begins with a structured literacy assessment designed to identify what may be getting in the way and which approaches are most likely to help move literacy development forward effectively.

From there, a clearer path forward is identified — 1:1 instruction, a guided parent program, or a combination of both — so families can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and direction.

Two Paths Forward

Every family’s situation is different.

Some families are looking for direct instruction for their child. Others want clearer guidance and practical tools to confidently help build reading and spelling skills at home.

Both paths are grounded in Structured Literacy and designed to create meaningful, lasting progress.

Path 1 — Parent Program: The 15-Minute Literacy Practice Program

A guided, assessment-driven parent program designed to help families confidently support reading and spelling development at home through short, structured daily practice.

Created through professional expertise and lived parent experience, the program was intentionally developed to provide the kind of clarity, guidance, and practical support many families wish they had access to much earlier in their child’s learning journey.

Parents learn how to build manageable 15-minute literacy routines that strengthen reading and spelling skills through consistent, purposeful repetition — helping create stronger, more lasting literacy progress over time.

Grounded in structured literacy and the Orton-Gillingham approach, the program helps families:

Better understand how their child learns
Replace confusion and guesswork with clear direction
Build effective literacy routines at home
Reinforce learning using more effective, evidence-based strategies
Navigate school conversations and advocacy with greater confidence

Includes:

4 weeks of guided parent learning
2 weeks of supported implementation and follow-up

Best for Families Who Want:

Greater clarity and direction
Practical tools and structured guidance
To build meaningful progress and understand effective literacy approaches
Greater confidence supporting and advocating for their child

Path 2 — 1:1 Student Individualized Instruction

Direct, individualized instruction designed to help students build stronger reading and spelling skills through structured, sequential teaching and consistent practice.

Sessions are tailored to each child’s learning profile and grounded in structured literacy and the Orton-Gillingham approach. Instruction focuses on building foundational literacy skills step by step through explicit teaching, purposeful repetition, and ongoing review — helping students strengthen accuracy, confidence, and long-term literacy development over time.

1:1 Support Includes

Individualized structured literacy instruction
Ongoing monitoring and adjustment based on student progress
Structured review and reinforcement to build skill retention and automaticity

Best for Families Who:

Want direct, ongoing literacy support
Prefer individualized, structured instruction
Want instruction tailored to their child’s learning profile
Value consistent, step-by-step skill development
Are looking for steady, meaningful progress over time
