A teacher who meets kids where they are

Reading Sprouts is Rineta Sprauve's tutoring company in Augusta. After more than ten years in the classroom, she built it around one idea: every child can become a confident reader when they feel safe, seen and encouraged.

No shame, no rush. Just small wins that add up, at your child's own pace.

FAQ

Parent questions, answered

What happens in the free diagnostic?

Rineta checks your child's reading level with a short, friendly assessment (not a scary test), then talks through the results with you. You'll leave knowing where they are, what the next academic milestones are, and which program fits. There's no cost and no commitment.

How young can my child start?

Toddlers are welcome. Younger children learn together with a parent, and older kids go all the way through middle school.

Do you work with dyslexia or English learners?

Yes. Dyslexia Support and ESOL Reading are both programs, and every plan moves at your child's pace.

Online or in-home?

Both. Online sessions run over Zoom on weekdays. In-home sessions are available weekdays and Saturday evenings, and a parent or guardian stays home. Libraries are also an option.

How do you know where my child is, and how do you track progress?

It starts with the free diagnostic, which shows their current reading level. From there, sessions are built around the next academic milestones, and Rineta keeps you updated on how your child is progressing toward them.

Where do you serve?

Augusta and the whole CSRA, plus online for families anywhere.

Can I get a background check?

Yes. A current background check is available to families on request.

How does payment work?

Pay per session or choose a monthly subscription. Discounts are available for multifamily, year-long subscriptions and military families. We'll go over details after your diagnostic.
