Wilson Reading Tutoring
The Wilson Reading System® (WRS) is a comprehensive Tier 3 intervention designed for students in 2nd grade and up facing word-level deficits, specifically those who struggle with traditional teaching methods. By employing a structured literacy approach grounded in phonological-coding research, WRS equips learners with essential decoding, encoding, and fluency skills, ensuring mastery of the English language.
From the beginning steps of the program, students receive instruction in:
-
Phonemic awareness
-
Decoding and word study
-
Sight word recognition
-
Spelling
-
Fluency
-
Vocabulary
-
Oral expressive language development
-
Comprehension
Each student undergoes an initial diagnostic assessment that evaluates their phonological awareness, phonics knowledge, spelling, oral reading, and writing skills. Following this assessment, we prepare a detailed report of the results, which is shared with parents along with an outline of the skills to be taught. We ensure that progress is carefully monitored during each session to support each student's continued growth.
We recommend a minimum of 2 sessions a week.
This supports faster growth as well as better retention between sessions.
