Reading With Ease: An Alternative Method is a unique learning to read strategy that is based on decades of literacy research supporting the use of direct one-to-one reading instruction as the key to stimulating the development and improvement of reading skills. For children, teens, and adults who learn differently, there exists a vast gap in the quality of education available that is often challenging to bridge. Coalescing decades of literacy research such as pre-teaching vocabulary sight words combined with the processes of teaching phonetics with the use of word symbols, Elaine created a learning strategy that helps beginner readers and others improve their reading skills. Learning to read often develops a desire to continue a lifelong learning journey into the wonders of written language. This and future volumes of Reading with Ease: An Alternative Method helps open the door to the discovery of written language for people who learn uniquely.
