The Real Reason Your Child Struggles With Reading Classic Texts (And How to Fix It!)
- Does your child find classic texts boring or too hard to understand?
- Do they struggle with unfamiliar vocabulary and old-fashioned language?
- Is reading comprehension holding them back in exams?

- Poor reading skills can affect exam performance, leading to frustration and lower confidence.
- Many exams, including the 11 Plus, use old English texts that most children aren’t used to reading.
- Without regular practice, your child may continue to struggle with inference, comprehension, and vocabulary.
- Imagine your child confidently reading and understanding classic texts like Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Oliver Twist, or The Secret Garden.
- Picture them answering comprehension questions with ease, improving their vocabulary, and gaining the confidence they need to succeed in exams.
Don’t wait until it’s too late! Give your child the reading skills they need to thrive. Join our Classic Reading Club and watch their confidence soar!
