Meet Your Reading Specialist
You don’t have to navigate your child’s reading challenges alone.
If you are watching your child fall behind in school or work incredibly hard with very little progress, please know that you don't have to figure this out alone. You are in the right place. Together, we can pinpoint exactly where the breakdown is happening and build your child's skills—and their confidence—from the ground up.
As an educator, I saw firsthand how easily bright students slip through the cracks without explicit, structured support. I founded Setter Reading because I believe every child deserves an expert who truly understands how they learn. My focus is entirely on delivering real help, practical solutions, and measurable results. I don't rely on guesswork; I track your child's specific reading growth week by week so you can see exactly how they are progressing.

Breaking the Cycle of Reading Failure
Reading intervention shouldn’t be a guessing game. Because your child’s literacy development is too important to leave to chance, my methodology is entirely rooted in the gold standards of evidence-based instruction.

Turning Frustration Into Breakthroughs
If your child has jumped from program to program without seeing needed improvements, you aren't alone.
Many well-meaning approaches guess at how to help a struggling reader. Your child goes from one strategy to the next, falling further behind while both of you grow more exhausted. When reading time consistently ends in frustration, it’s easy for a child to start believing they simply can't do it.
I founded Setter Reading to completely change that experience. I don't believe in guessing games, and I don't wait for a formal diagnosis or an IEP to start delivering relief. My framework is built on a simple promise: Take the struggle out of reading.
