Fit Reading
Reading instruction is a cornerstone of education, yet many approaches have led to insufficient outcomes, with 63% of American high school graduates below reading proficiency. Additionally, 15-20% of the population is affected by dyslexia, underscoring the urgent need for effective solutions. While movements like “The Science of Reading” have evolved to address what should be taught, they often overlook how to teach reading to fluency.

What our Learners are Saying
Fit Learning Cleveland is an amazing organization. My student made a goal to move into a higher level math class. With the work completed at Fit Learning this... read more summer, she was able to do so. I have never seen such progress in such a short amount of time.

Dr Corinne and the FIT Learning Cleveland Team have done an outstanding job with my now 5th grade! He started back in February to target his Reading Comprehension skills. COVID19... read more happened and Dr Corinne was quick to adapt. In addition to Reading sessions, he has done Logic and Math enrollments. The team is excited for his successes and they are very knowledgeable in identifying when things are hard and breaking the work down to decrease frustration and help him to reach fluency and mastery of his goals in a positive learning environment. Everyone is very professional, educated and has the best interests of the student in mind. I have seen identifiable growth and generalization of his learned skills. Not only am I seeing it but the hard work and effort he’s put in have been noticed by his teacher’s this summer. I highly recommend Dr Corinne and the FIT Learning Cleveland Team!
