Joining The Reading Doctor has been one of the most rewarding decisions of my career. The training and ongoing support are second to none, and it’s incredibly fulfilling to see the progress my pupils make. I truly feel like I’m part of a family of passionate educators.
— Lisa Tanner, The Reading Doctor, Bath
I am so impressed by this business in a box. From decision to first lesson my journey was easy, very supportive and everything I could have wished for. 9 months from my first lesson taking place, I am now teaching 39 children 1:1 in 3 schools and at home in my wonderfully resourced classroom. Monthly CPD meetings and online support from other Reading Doctors mean that I’m up to date with education policies and new ideas.
