Teach the way the brain learns
Step into Literacy: On Demand Lessons
Step into Literacy is a program that shows you lesson by lesson how to help your child be confident with reading in the comfort of their own home. In this program, we teach kids to read with accuracy using an evidence-based, Orton Gillingham structured literacy approach. ✔
Finally reading will make sense!
We turn abstract letters into meaningful patterns so that kids say "Ahh! I get it now"!
Step into Literacy is a self-paced on-demand course that gives you the complete step by step process of how to systematically teach your child to read, one lesson at a time.
We start with identifying gaps, filling them in and creating a strong foundation. Then we systematically layer each required skill one by one, at your child's own pace, without the rollercoaster of emotions and overwhelm.
Watch your child be surprised at what they can do within the first few lessons!
You get easy-to-use assessment tools, resources, word lists, games and 40+ video tutorials stepping you through the process of learning to read.
If your child is struggling with reading, I'll guarantee you it is because they have been taught ineffective, outdated strategies that simply don't work for some kids.
If the 'stratiegies' below sound familiar, your child has been being taught in a way that doesn't work for their brain.
❌ Memorising whole words or 'sight' words
❌ Using pictures to guess what words say
❌ Using repetitive or predictable text
👉🏽Just reading to your child more won't help, and neither will waiting to see if things click.
End the frustration, anger and confidence crushing cycle of doing 'more of the same' and expecting different results.
Instead, jump into Step into Literacy and we'll show you exactly how to get 100% success rate with teaching kids to read, teaching the the way that their brains needs to learn to read, no matter the diagnosis or situation.

Does this sound familiar...
- You have an amazing kid but they suffer from anxiety, have low confidence & low self-esteem. Maybe your child is thinking that they are 'dumb'.
- Your child may have had some school-based or run-of-the-mill tutoring but you've seen minimal progress.
- You want to help your own child but you are unsure of what you should be doing and how to get started. It seems so overwhelming.
- Your child is saying that they don't want to go to school anymore and that worries you.
- One to one therapy is either too expensive or limited in your area.
- You know you can help your child with the right approach so that they can be happy and not worry about reading anymore.
It's frustrating not knowing how to help your child
Your child just doesn't 'get' reading and is frustrated.
Your child is noticing that they are behind compared to their friends
You might be thinking...
Why can't my child read?
The ability to successfully read comes down to how effectively a child processes language in the brain.
Truth is, some kids will seemingly just 'pick up' reading but 1 in 5 will struggle due to poor phonological processing.
When this happens, the child that struggles will need a different teaching approach. More of the same teaching that is failing them in the first place will not work and will waste time.
Instead, we need to:
✅ Find out exactly what they know and don't know using our easy to follow assessments.
✅ Go back to the start and fill in the foundation gaps.
✅ Learn how the letter to sound codes work in syllables.
✅ Put those syllables together to read with accuracy and confidence.
✅Practice applying this new knowledge with all of the resources & games needed to do so.

I'M READY TO GET STARTEDWhat do past Step into Literacy mums have to say?
"Kristy Haworth from Step Into Literacy has been a powerful teaching presence for me as a homeschool mum. By offering tuition on English that even teachers in school generally don’t/can’t utilise, I was able to supply my children with leading resources. We feel like we’ve not only learned basic reading/writing skills, but have advanced skills now, stuck has boosted our confidence along with accelerating the kids’ learning journeys." ~ Jo, Step into Literacy mum of a 10 and 13 year old
"Do it! What’s the alternative?
The current schooling system wasn’t working for my child. Continuing doing the same thing and expecting a different result just wasn’t going to happen.
I’m so happy that I took the plunge. I don’t regret a thing.
The most rewarding thing has been seeing my daughter succeed where she was consistently failing. My daughter simply needed a different strategy."
~ Sandra, Step into Literacy mum to a 7 year old
"Joining this literacy program has been a game-changer for our family. The engaging curriculum and dedication from Kristy has improved our child's reading skills and fostered a new love for our son’s learning. Highly recommend it to any family looking to boost their child's literacy and confidence!!"
~ Tegan, Step into Literacy mum to a 9 year old
"If your child is struggling and after researching like me have realised that if you want them to improve, you are going to have to do the extra work with them. This type of material is what dyslexic children need so to understand how to work out the reading themselves are they are unable to retain sight works. This is not what is taught in schools. It’ll be the best spent money to invest in your child’s education. The material can be used for more than one child."
~ Jo, mum to a 10 year old & 13 year old
"Step into Literacy has been great to give me some of the background into how to approach leaning to read. We didn't get this from the school. I now feel like I can help my son more. It has even given me the language and knowledge to discuss things further with the school."
~ Caren, Step into Literacy mum to a 10 year old
Your 'Step into Literacy' Coach
Hi! I'm Kristy.
I specialise in working with kids who struggling with reading and spelling.
I have a Bachelor of Education and Postgraduate qualifications in Special Education, specialising in Learning Difficulties. I have several accredited evidence-based qualifications including Orton Gillingham and Multisensory Structured Language (MSL). I am also an accredited dyslexia therapist with the Australian Dyslexic Association (ADA).
I run a private dyslexia practice to also teach kids one to one. The best part of that is showing parents what they can do at home to support the learning that we do in private practice. I came to realise that parents can do this so effectively at home with my guidance and that is how the idea of Step into Literacy was born.
Parents get big results. You are with your kids all the time!
I know that as a parent yourself, you might feel overwhelmed with English too. I get it! So, we make it easy to follow, logical and systematic.
Come along for the ride with me and I'll show you the way.
Kristy x
