Summer Reading Camp in Newport Beach Helps Children with Speech and Language Disabilities

Jan. 24, 2013 - PRLog -- PRIDE Learning Center, a premier tutoring center in Newport Beach, has announced it will offer a specialized summer reading camp to better meet the needs of children with dyslexia, auditory and visual processing, apraxia, speech delays, ADHD and other language and learning disabilities.  The specialized summer reading camp is available to the public, and is designed to help children ages 4-18 develop a strong reading foundation for academic and emotional success, according to Karina Richland, Founder of PRIDE Learning Center.  

According to Richland, the summer reading camp at PRIDE is designed to help students in a way that a regular summer school program cannot.  “All of the teachers at PRIDE Learning Center are credentialed and certified in Orton-Gillingham, most of them holding Master’s Degrees in reading and having strong special education backgrounds.”

The summer reading camp at PRIDE Learning Center will run weekly from June 3rd – August 30th to accommodate busy schedules and traveling families.  Children can attend from either 9:00am – 12:00pm or 12:30pm – 3:30 pm Monday –Friday.  All teachers are credentialed and deliver one-on-one Orton-Gillingham language and reading lessons.

“Summer is a wonderful and effective time for struggling students to boost their skills and close the reading and comprehension gaps,” says Richland.  “Although the reading camp is intensive and highly structured, the teachers at PRIDE make it really fun and super engaging for the kids.  The kids love it and we have families return to us each summer.”

PRIDE Learning Center is a leading tutoring company in Los Angeles and Orange County, for students with learning disabilities.  Their reading and comprehension program has been shown to boost student performance almost 2 grade levels in just 3 months.  The Orton-Gillingham instruction develops the underlying reading and comprehension skills necessary for students with dyslexia, auditory processing, visual processing, autism, apraxia, ADHD and other learning challenges.  It is common to see years of reading improvement after just weeks of intensive instruction.
