Whether it’s at the hairdresser or in the supermarket, if I mention I am an English teacher, the first response is ‘Ohhh!…
Readingmate wants all children to succeed.
Reading should spark joy, ignite imaginations and be a life-long love for your child.
Founders, Hannah and James, don’t want any child to face barriers when it comes to reading.
Hannah has spent seven years teaching English enriching her students lives with her own love of reading.
Readingmate is the tool for reluctant readers, enthusiastic readers and readers of all abilities.
Prior to learning how to read themselves, children enjoy being read to by others. For some, the transition from listening to a loved one read them a story to learning to read themselves can be incredibly daunting.
Once an activity goes from being enjoyable to being a requirement, reading can feel like a task or a chore. Reading now carries a weight of responsibility that never used to be there. It’s no wonder some children find it challenging or struggle to adapt!
We realise that technology is a part of your child’s daily life. Screen time and digital formats are becoming the norm (and more stimulating). It’s hard for books or reading to compete. That’s why we’ve created the Readingmate app.
We want to solve these problems. That’s why we focus on:
It’s cliché to say that all children are different. But it’s true. Hannah works with some amazing children with a variety of needs and she believes that all children, regardless of ability, should have access to and find joy in books. That’s why the Readingmate app has been designed with all children in mind.
We pride ourselves on our ability to inspire children of all ages and abilities to engage in a life-long love of reading. But in order to do this, parents and teachers need to be empowered too.
That’s why we have a dedicated Learning Hub full of content and tips. Read our blog posts and watch our videos for practical advice on how to encourage children to read.
Let’s inspire the next generation of readers together.
