ASD Reading is a patented, research-based method for teaching children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to read, write and comprehend. Current reading education relies on methods that do not work for most children on the spectrum with the result that the majority never gain the ability to read with fluency or understanding. However, the innovative content and methods of ASD Reading enable children to achieve success - even when they are non-verbal (i.e., non-speaking).
