About Me
Hi, I'm David! 🚀
​I am an Ontario-certified elementary school teacher specializing in Grade 1–3 Science of Reading instruction, and the founder of Reading Boost.
​In my daily teaching practice, I see firsthand how structured, science-backed instruction completely transforms a child's reading journey. But I also know how overwhelming it can be for parents at home who want to help but don't know where to start, or are tired of fighting over boring worksheets.
​That’s why I created Reading Boost. My mission is to bridge the gap between classroom science and your kitchen table by providing simple, effective, and stress-free resources that actually work.
​The Reading Boost Philosophy:
​Grounded in Science: Every resource I build is aligned with the Science of Reading (SoR) and the Ontario Language Curriculum (Strand B2).
​No-Book, Low-Stress: Practice should fit seamlessly into your day—whether that's at the kitchen table, on the couch, or on the drive to school.
​Consistency Over Intensity: Just 10 to 15 calm minutes a day will move the needle further than long, frustrating weekend study sessions.
​Looking for 1:1 Support?
​If your child needs more personalized, targeted intervention than a home routine can offer, I am here to help. Reading Boost offers dedicated 1:1 online Science of Reading tutoring designed to find and close your child's specific reading gaps.

​Thank you for being your child's biggest reading champion. Happy reading!
