The PRIDE Reading Program?
What is the PRIDE Reading Program?
At PRIDE we value each of our students individual learning styles. The PRIDE Learning System is research-based and creates independent and confident students. PRIDE Reading Specialists tap into each child’s learning style through our multisensory program by including touch, vision, kinetic and auditory elements. At PRIDE we are proudly committed to each student, each family, and each outcome.
PRIDE students become independent readers and enthusiastic lifelong learners. With PRIDE you will see:
- Improved Reading
- Increased Self-Confidence
- New Found Motivation For Learning

How The PRIDE Reading Program Works?
To teach a struggling reader, we begin with recognition of the letters, the sounds of the letters, and the sounds of letter combinations (phonemes). Our structured program is structured, systematic and cumulative. This means that, like a pyramid, the base must first be strong enough to support the entire structure. After our students receive a strong foundation, they are able to recognize words using the skills we teach.
The final element of the PRIDE System is that we act to increase intrinsic motivation and resultant self-esteem with every second of interaction. This means that our students feel approval and accomplishment because they know we like them — and admire their efforts and their perseverance. Every student at PRIDE becomes a reader.
