If your child is falling behind in reading, you’re likely doing everything you can to help: phonics programs, flash cards, tutors, even apps that promise results.
But what if the real reason they’re still struggling isn’t about comprehension—or even their motivation?
What if it’s about how their eyes move across the page?
Let’s explore a different solution.
Most reading tutors focus on decoding, comprehension, or reading strategies. These are important, but they only work if a deeper system is already functioning properly.
That system is eye tracking.
Reading fluency depends on smooth, coordinated eye movement. If your child’s eyes are skipping, backtracking, or straining to follow the line, no amount of tutoring can fully compensate for this issue.
They may get frustrated faster… because they’re trying harder to do something their eyes aren’t physically ready to do.
1 in 4 children have undiagnosed delays in eye teaming and tracking
These issues often mimic dyslexia, ADHD, or low motivation
Most traditional reading tutors aren’t trained to spot them
The good news? It can be corrected quickly and affordably.
Our program doesn’t start with harder reading passages. It begins with retraining the eyes to move.
We use a method designed to strengthen the 12 small muscles that control how your child’s eyes track text. It’s not therapy. It’s not tutoring. It’s a short daily practice that gently rewires how reading flows.
This method activates the attention and language centers of the brain by helping both eyes move together. As the muscles begin to sync, something amazing happens:
Reading gets easier.
Comprehension improves.
And confidence starts to grow.
Most families experience changes within 30 days.
Working with Michelle Novak has been an absolute game-changer for our children. From the very first session, we saw immediate improvement in their reading skills. She has a natural gift for making lessons fun and engaging, and the kids genuinely look forward to their time with her. They love her sense of humor and how easy she is to talk to—she’s never intimidating, just encouraging and kind. Not only do they enjoy learning with her, but the progress they’ve made has been incredible. We’re so grateful we found her and I’ll forever be grateful for what she’s done for them!

I was surprised at how effectively my son was evaluated and treated online for vision services! I felt rejected from local ophthalmologists trying to dismiss my concerns and not giving me a game plan to treat my son's amblyopia, saying that because he wasn't failing in school yet, that there was no problem. I'm so glad I decided to start him on vision therapy early, and because of all the hard work, he really enjoys reading (and I even catch him reading big books "just for fun!!!") The exercises were simple and manageable, and we got into a rhythm that game-ified it. His strabismus (eye misalignment) is completely healed (confirmed by an opthamologist.) Working with Coach Michelle was a joy. She is extremely personable and patient with my wiggly son (and with me, as we navigated strategies to tailor specifically for our needs.) She created an environment that was not overwhelming for my son, and was always very encouraging when he was trying new things. At 6 years old, my son just finished his first chapter book, all on his own. I'm so glad he never felt behind in his learning. We are so happy to have graduated, but so sad to not see Coach M anymore!

These aren’t quick fixes. They’re lasting breakthroughs—because they fix the root.
Loses their place while reading
Can’t recall what they just read
Skips or re-reads the same line
Hates reading, even though they're trying
Complaints of tired or blurry eyes
Drops words or inserts words
These are not signs of laziness. They're signs that something deeper may be affecting how your child perceives and processes text.
