Redwood provides high-dose structured literacy intervention grounded in the science of reading. Every lesson is individualized around your child’s learning profile and delivered by licensed educators trained in dyslexia intervention, structured literacy, and multisensory instruction. Rather than relying on a single program, our specialists draw from the strongest evidence-based approaches to target the precise skills each student needs to develop. Our students come to us when they’re struggling with decoding, fluency, spelling, reading comprehension, or written expression and our instruction adapts continuously as progress is made.

Dyslexia Assessments
Online Dyslexia Assessments
Gain a clear understanding of your child’s reading strengths and challenges through standardized, research-backed assessments. Each evaluation includes a detailed written report with practical recommendations that can guide tutoring, school accommodations, IEP or 504 planning, and future educational decisions.
Group Tutoring
Small-Group Dyslexia Tutoring
Students receive structured literacy instruction in an intentionally small, supportive group setting. Learning alongside peers with similar profiles helps build confidence, encourages participation, and creates meaningful opportunities to practice new skills while still receiving individualized attention from an expert intervention specialist.
Individual Tutoring
One-on-One Dyslexia Tutoring
Our individualized tutoring provides high-dose, structured literacy intervention tailored to your child’s specific needs. Lessons are grounded in the science of reading and continuously adjusted as progress is made, helping students build stronger decoding, spelling, fluency, comprehension, and writing skills.
