Starting specialized, private reading instruction is a big commitment, both financially and emotionally. Even when you know that structured literacy is what your child needs, taking that first step can feel daunting when you haven’t met the person who will be working with your child.
Hi, I’m Chris, founder and reading specialist at Limestone Reading. I want to make this decision as easy, transparent, and stress-free as possible. That’s why I offer a free 30-minute Introductory Trial Lesson before you ever commit to a monthly schedule.
What Happens During Your 30-Minute Session?
It is part gentle reading check-in, part family consultation, and entirely low-stress. Together, we will:
- Get to know each other: Your child gets to visit our calm downtown space and experience what a session feels like without any pressure to perform.
- Discuss your goals: We will talk through where your child is struggling at school, what you’ve tried so far, and what success looks like for your family.
- Complete a light assessment: I’ll run through a brief, encouraging reading assessment to see how your child processes speech sounds and language.
- Give you clear advice: You will walk away with actionable insights into your child’s reading profile—whether you decide to continue working with me or not.
No Obligation, Zero Hard Sell
I am a teacher first and a business owner second. My only goal during this session is to give you honest feedback and see if your child feels comfortable and confident working with me.
If it feels like a great match, we can discuss ongoing monthly lessons. If not, there is absolutely no hard sell or obligation. You can take advantage of this trial with complete peace of mind.
