What if you’ve never taught a child to read before?
Many parents want to teach their children to read, but don’t even know where to start.
Some educators feel lost and overwhelmed: conflicting information, nonsense methodologies, rigid beliefs… Finding useful, actionable information and materials is tricky, time-consuming and confusing.
I took the intimidation factor out of the picture. This book takes the mystery and the guessing out of teaching reading, and works even if you have never taught a child to read before!
What is the blueprint on the book based upon?
The step-by-step signature blueprint outlined in the book is not based on memorization, guessing, or word shapes, but on a logical, simple, and sensible phonics-based approach that children can truly enjoy.This system allows students achieve their full potential at reading.
Made for the super-busy agendas
I honestly believe less is more—especially when you’re a busy parent. I know exactly how it is! Crazy schedules, drop-offs, pick-ups, preparing meals, planning holidays and birthday parties… and so much more!
That’s why, in this book, you’ll find no fluff or complication. It gets straight to the point and is written in a highly digestible format, so you can start implementing what you learn right away.
If you want to dive deeper into certain topics, we’ve also included plenty of references to external resources.
Do we recommend using sight words?
I’ve mentioned before that the system used in this book does not rely on sight words.
You might be familiar with this scene: fighting with endless lists of sight words and flashcards that your child (or student) has to memorize, only to discover that they’ve forgotten them the next day.
Learning to read this way is boring and unenjoyable—for everyone: children, parents, educators, tutors, caregivers…
Good news! Learning to read doesn’t have to be an arduous, boring task anymore! There is another way.
Look, I hear you. Is this even possible? Is English not all over the place when it comes to spelling?
While there are exceptions and words that must be memorized, the reality is there aren’t many. I know this may not be what you’ve heard before—it goes against the common belief—but in this guide, you’ll discover that this is not the case.
What you need to be careful about is how you introduce sounds, rules, concepts, phonics, etc. In this book, you’ll discover how to do this, as it’s an essential piece of the puzzle.
Besides, did you know that over-relying on word memorization and visual memory is an inefficient way of teaching reading?
How can “How to Teach a Child to Read from Scratch Step-by-Step:” help you?
If you are a parent, by following the process this guide reveals, you will be setting up the right foundational skills for turning your child into a successful reader. If you are the parent or the carer of a struggling reader, you’ll understand that it is probably the methods and not your child (or you!) to blame for his/her struggle.
If you are a literacy educator, having access to this powerful framework will turn you into a confident and successful educator that can make an impact on your students’ future.

Hey there! I’m Laura – an author, YouTuber, blogger, and the creator of the “Learning Reading Hub” platform. I created this space to dive into the world of reading instruction and to shout from the rooftops about how vital it is to use the right methods for teaching reading. I’ve got a TEYL certification (Teaching English to Young Learners), plus a Journalism degree from the University of Navarra in Spain, along with a Master’s Degree in Communication.
I’ve always loved digging into research, jotting down my thoughts, connecting with people, and sharing what makes me tick. With a background in marketing, digital projects, and the education scene (especially language learning), I’m all about wearing different hats.
When my first kid needed to learn how to read, it opened my eyes to the challenges and complexities involved. This journey took me through a rollercoaster of self-teaching, eye-opening discoveries, and yeah, some letdowns too. There’s so much conflicting info out there, along with methods that just don’t cut it. And let’s face it, these issues are way too common.
Now, I’m all about channeling that passion (without sounding like a know-it-all!) and sharing my journey. My mission? Making it easier for those who are on the same path I once was.
My heart’s with my family and the amazing Learning Reading Hub project. I live with my husband and two little ones, raising them in a bi-lingual environment (English and Spanish).
