Â
I need this!Why it works...
Reverse Reading™ works because it was built for how neurodivergent learners process information:
- Confidence-first learning: Fluency and comprehension skills are strengthened early to build momentum.
- Reduced cognitive overload: Decoding and phonics are introduced when memory, fluency, and language foundations are stronger.
- Predictable routines: Each PowerPoint lesson follows the same structure to support learners who thrive with routine and clarity.
- Multi-sensory, scaffolded teaching: Students receive support that fades gradually to promote independence.
- Strength-based approach: We focus on what students can do and expand from there—reducing frustration and increasing motivation.
-
These shifts lead to notable gains in reading fluency across all struggling readers.

Why Reverse Reading™ Is Needed
Traditional reading programs follow a predictable order:
phonics → decoding → fluency → comprehension.
 Â
For many students with Dyslexia or reading disabilities, this sequence overwhelms their working memory, slows progress, and creates frustration.Â
Â
Reverse Reading™ keeps all five pillars of reading—
🔹 Phonemic Awareness
🔹 Phonics
🔹 Fluency
🔹 Vocabulary
🔹 Comprehension
—but shifts the instructional focus across the timeline so students build confidence, fluency, and comprehension earlier. This subtle but powerful change allows struggling readers to make meaningful gains without feeling defeated.
This is for you if...
- You support a child who hasn’t responded to traditional reading curricula
- You’re tired of programs that expect struggling readers to “just try harder”
- You want a method that aligns with how neurodivergent brains learn
- You’re looking for a structured, step-by-step program you can use immediately
- You want confidence-building reading instruction that works—not guesswork
Reverse Reading™ was created to meet learners where they are and move them forward with purpose.Â

I was desperate for someone to help me with my daughter's IEP. Courtney made me feel comfortable with the meeting and helped me prepare. My daughter got everything she needed in her IEP. I am so thankful I found her and got the help we needed.Â
