Where is your child's reading right now?

Sit with your child and show them each word. Tap "Read it" if they read it without help. The words get harder or easier as you go, and you'll get a rough reading level at the end.

Let's find out.

Kgrade 7+

Eight words, about a minute. There's no wrong answer: it just tells me where to start.

for kids · 30 seconds

The times-table sprint.

How many can you get in 30 seconds? My students start around 8 and usually hit 20 within a month. Fluent times tables make fractions, division and algebra so much easier.

The real lesson

One gap, filled properly, with blocks, drawings or games. Never just the worksheet.

If they can explain it back, they own it. If not, we go again tomorrow.

A note for you

Three lines for parents: what we did, what clicked, and one thing to try at home.

what I believe

Every kid can learn this. Most "math problems" are really confidence problems, and most reading struggles start with one small gap nobody noticed. Find the gap, fill it gently, and watch them light up.

hi, I'm Hannah

Nine years in a classroom. Now one kid at a time.

  • Certified teacher
  • Reading specialist
  • Background checked
  • In person or online

Hi! I'm Hannah. The first session is free, and it's mostly me getting to know your kid: what they love, what they avoid, and where it started going wrong. Then I'll tell you honestly how I can help.

A voice note. On a real webfolio, it's the tutor's own voice.

Maya went from hiding her math homework to asking for "the hard ones". In two months.

Jen, mom of a 4th grader

Hannah found that our son had never really learned his vowel sounds. Fixed in six weeks. He reads at bedtime now.

Carlos, dad of a 2nd grader

Algebra finally makes sense. She explains it like a normal person.

Ellie, 8th grade

Sample reviews, written for this made-up tutor.

In person or online?

Either. In person anywhere in Halden, online with a shared whiteboard.

How often should we meet?

Usually once or twice a week for a term, then we taper off as confidence builds.

Do you help with test prep?

Yes, state tests and entrance exams, focused on the skills under the questions.

Is the reading check above a real test?

It's a quick conversation starter, not a diagnosis. The free trial gives a much clearer picture.
