Help Ohio Students Become Confident Readers

High-Dosage Literacy Tutoring Aligned to Ohio’s Reading Priorities

 

Too many Ohio students are entering third grade without the foundational reading skills they need to succeed.

Ignite Reading partners with Ohio schools to close early literacy gaps through structured, Science of Reading–aligned intervention designed specifically for students in grades K–3.

As an Ohio Department of Education and Workforce–approved high-quality tutoring provider, Ignite Reading delivers targeted support that helps districts accelerate reading outcomes and ensure more students are on track before third grade.

 

In a 15-minute discovery session, you'll learn how Ohio schools are:

  • Helping struggling readers reach benchmark faster

    Students gain an average of 1.5 grade levels in reading within one school year through structured daily intervention.

  • Supporting Ohio’s Science of Reading implementation

    Explicit, systematic Tier 2 and Tier 3 instruction aligned to Ohio literacy requirements and focused on phonemic awareness, decoding, and fluency.

  • Delivering intervention during the school day

    Daily 15-minute sessions that integrate into your master schedule without disrupting core instruction.

  • Using real-time data to track student growth

    Clear progress monitoring and reporting that supports teachers, interventionists, and administrators.

Why High-Dosage Tutoring Is So Effective — School Leaders & Researchers Weigh In

From Behind to On Benchmark:
Intervention Impact Study

Johns Hopkins University researchers spent the 23-24 school year studying the reading progress of nearly 2,000 1st graders engaged in daily 1:1 foundational reading skills intervention from Ignite Reading.

Here's what they learned:

  • Students reading on benchmark increased 213% with the help of high-dosage tutoring
  • The number of students in need of intensive intervention decreased 55%.
  • Students across demographics — including students of color, multilingual learners, and those with an IEP — all improved their skills at nearly the same rate, gaining an average of 5.4 months of added learning (compared to national averages).

83% of 1st graders on benchmark for phonics are on track for all reading skills by 3rd grade.4

"At one given time we have 15 students plugged into Ignite Reading, receiving instruction from 15 different adults. Never could we replicate that in a school system, and we couldn't afford it."
