Cultivating Creative Literacy & Confidence
The inspirED Reader & Writer Primary Program addresses the fundamental needs of students aged 4-12, giving them the skills and knowledge necessary to become the best versions of themselves inside and outside the classroom.
Our program is unparalleled for five reasons:

Tailor-Made for Hong Kong Students: Our carefully chosen course materials address common weaknesses and challenges of Hong Kong students, as identified by our experienced and expert teachers.

Research-Based Curriculum: Our curriculum incorporates research from some of the most reputable names in education, including the Teachers College Reading & Writing Project at Columbia University, Dr. Jan Richardson’s Next Steps Program, Dr. Tim Rasinski’s The Fluent Reader, and more.

Strategies, not Formulas: More often than not, writing is taught through generic formulas and ends with students mimicking model texts with little thought (and learning) involved.
