Does your gut tell you something is wrong with your child's reading, but the school’s evaluation says everything is fine? Do you feel confused and unsure of what to do next?

In this episode of The Literacy Keys, you’ll learn how to confidently challenge the school's findings and get the answers your child deserves. You’ll understand how to leverage the Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE) and have the school pay for this second opinion.

  • Discover what an Independent EducationalEvaluation (IEE) is, and why it's a game-changer for parents.
  • Learn the exact steps to request that your public school pay for this crucial second opinion.
  • Uncover how an IEE can lead to a proper diagnosis and support plan for your child.


This episode is for any parent of a struggling reader who feels like they aren't being heard by the school system. Host Tracy Young explains this complex process from a unique perspective: as a certified Orton-Gillingham tutor providing dyslexia tutoring, as an advocate, and as a parent who has been in the trenches with her own child.
