What is it?
READWELL© simplifies reading by breaking the process down to only 7 STEPS.
INTERNATIONAL READWELL CAN BE USED TO FASTRACK the teaching of ENGLISH as a SECOND LANGUAGE
for very basic speakers of English.
INTERNATIONAL READWELL is available to students anywhere in the world via the
CORRESPONDENCE service and/or INTERNET SUPPORT.
This is an extremely COST EFFECTIVE program using all the READWELL
methodologies, ie READING, REMEDIAL READING, SPELLING, WRITING SKILLS,
PUNCTUATION AND BASIC MATH. Remember a 98.7% PLUS success rate.
TESTS are provided with full instructions, returned and analysed. Bruce
Cruicks and his staff then develop a program, with full instructions for the student.
SUPPORT IS THEN PROVIDED for the student through the INTERNET or by PHONE.
How it works
We are able to diagnose the cause of the problem EXACTLY and then repair it in only 10 -12 weeks.
AVERAGE readers can have their reading age increased by 2-4 years in only 4-6 weeks.
This is because the visual or auditory processing area/s that cause the problem are taken
into account in designing the program for the individual. Programs can be designed for individual
students to be used by PARENTS, TUTORS, teachers, classes, schools or school districts.
AUSTRALASIAN READWELL© was validated by Griffith University (Gold Coast) in 1999
under the direction of Assoc. Professor Merv Hyde and Dr Jeff Hughes.
Over 20,000 children and adults have succeeded on the READWELL© program, many of whom
had failed on other remedial programs (both school and private).
Remedial Reading Program
The Test diagnoses the cause of the problem and then provides a program to
fix the problem at the student's own pace which is about 30 minutes per
day for 10 to 12 weeks. All information is provided.
