Tutor Position
SLD Read makes West Michigan a better place by teaching our children to READ. We impact our community by enhancing current curricula to effectively reach students with dyslexia and other reading challenges through our 1-to-1 tutoring, educator and parent trainings.
Simply put: we love to read and want to spread that passion and enthusiasm throughout West Michigan. As a non-profit, community resource, we exist to help people that learn differently from the general population. Our proven methods have been changing lives and igniting a passion for learning and literacy for 40 years.
Our vision is a community, working together for literacy, that empowers all individuals to achieve their full potential.
Our mission is threefold: helping individuals with dyslexia, learning differences, and other reading challenges to develop lifelong language skills through our multisensory program; assisting educators to identify learning challenges by providing training and techniques to enhance their reading curriculum; increasing community awareness and understanding of literacy issues.
