Reading and spelling assessment

Reading and spelling are complex processes. We need to identify your particular areas of strength and need before we can outline suitable treatment. We use formal assessments for:

• spoken language and system of speech sounds (i.e., ‘phonological awareness’);

• ability to identify letters and read them in the correct order;

• reading and spelling phonics;

• reading accuracy, fluency, and comprehension;

• spelling rules related to grammar.

Assessments cost between $180 and $500, depending on what is required. A report is provided, along with any treatment recommendations. If you require treatment outside our area of expertise, we won’t hesitate to refer you on to find the help you need.
