Some studies show that over 40% of elementary school students in the U.S. are reading below grade-level by the end of the third grade. MaestroReading.com (http://www.maestroreading.com), a literacy education internet portal, is meant to help address this problem; the solutions are geared for elementary school-aged children (grades 1 through 6), and can be used as part of a regular reading curriculum, and as remediation for children reading below grade-level, and children with reading disabilities like dyslexia. Solutions include a storybook about Leonardo da Vinci for practicing fluency, and a set of Learning Tools, which help children practice discrete elements of the reading process, like letter and word recognition, phonic analysis and syllabication.
The solution is primarily geared for use in schools, and is priced very attractively for that market, but it is also a good fit for remediation and English as a Second Language (ESL) institutions. There will also be a specialized version tailored for use by children at home. The future looks bright for MaestroReading.com. They are nearing the end of development cycle, and are ready to begin beta-testing with interested schools. At the same time, they are looking for investors interested in turning a profit while contributing to literacy education.
