Make Your Child
A Better Reader
By Jim Forgan, Ph.D.,
School Psychologist
Every child needs
to learn how to read
but one in five children
have dyslexia so it is no
surprise that many kids
have problems learning
to read. Warning signs
of dyslexia include
having a family member
diagnosed or suspected
to have dyslexia, slow reading aloud, difficulty
sounding out unfamiliar words, and weak everyday
spelling.
Here are three ways you can help make your child
a better reader.
First, make reading enjoyable and capitalize on
your child’s interests since when we are interested in a
topic it holds our attention and intrinsically motivates

good reader. The more we practice, the better you’ll
become.” Teach your child to have grit which is the
ability to start and stick with a task until it’s finished.
Notice your child having grit in a preferred task and
then link it back to the harder task. You might say, “You
really stuck with that project and put in a lot of effort
to finish it. You can have that same kind of grit when
it comes to reading or anything you set your mind to
accomplish.”
Third, if your child and you butt heads during
academic work time, hire a well-qualified reading
tutor. It takes at least twice a week tutoring to make a
substantial difference in your child’s reading ability. I
have a list of specialized reading tutors at JimForgan.
