Welcome

Our success

to the most effective methodology for reading instruction.Developed by Cliff Ponder, the Academic Associates Reading Program is very distinctive from other phonics programs. It is more than tutoring and more than your usual phonics program which gives a student a few phonics rules and you then hope they make the rest of the connections.  Our reading program is a comprehensive phonics program that changes the way a student approaches every word he/she encounters and trains their minds to be analytical.

The Academic Associates Reading Program is so successful because it is:

1.  An actual step-by-step method of teaching reading, like building a pyramid one block at a time.

2. Scientifically structured. It is based on the brain's own neural architecture.

3. Carefully layered. Each small step builds on all previous steps. Students show improvement from the very first lesson.
