Leap Into Literacy

www.leapintoliteracy.com.au

Are you looking for a unique and fun way to extend your child’s reading and writing skills? Leap into Literacy can help!

Created by Allison Greenland, whose PhD dissertation focused on using technology as a motivation factor and reading comprehension skills in younger students, Leap into Literacy was developed to provide small classes for children with a focus on reading comprehension and creative writing. Using techniques that allow students to become creative in the learning process, sessions are unique and achieve maximum results.

Classes are FUN and are NOT based on individual students completing worksheets on their own, but instead a more involved and hands-on approach during the group lessons with one-on-one support for the written work. This means that students are more motivated to learn and retain the information for life!

Parents like to use the classes not only as a fun method to increase reading and writing skills, but as an extension to help expand on what is already in place for more advanced students. Classes are creative and involve games, audio and visual clips, technology, and more to keep students motivated. Classes are held in  Annandale, Balmain, Drummoyne, North Willoughby and Tempe for children in Years K-6 as well as our new preschool classes.

Contact Allison now on 0420734720 to organise your child’s FREE trial class, and visit our website to learn more and to read the positive reviews from happy parents:

What we will be learning here is using the English Language as a tool to learn the skills to be a C.E.O.
