Is Your Child Struggling With Reading and Writing?
"One million of BC'S adults have weak literacy skills"
--Stats Can as reported by Literacy BC
Thousands more are added each year.
Will your child become a statistic?
If your child has difficulty learning to read, and is not reading at grade level by Grade 3, he or she is at risk. Statistics show that if a child has lteracy problems in Elementary school, they are far more likely to suffer failure in High School and will find it more difficult to acquire meaningful employment in today's knowledge economy.

Burnaby Center Now Open
Aspire is proud to announce that our Burnaby Center is at long last up and running. We can now offer Burnaby and Vancouver children and adults the same excellent in-office programming and remediation that we have been offering Langley/Surrey clients for the past 17 years.
This could not have been accomplished without the wholehearted and very generous sponsorship of the Nucasa Milling Company (aka The Finishing Touch). Their warmth and generosity have been an inspiration to us and much appreciated.
If you have any need for fine finishing materials or ideas, take a look at their company www.nucassa.com.
The new address is 6150 Lougheed Highway, just one block east of the Holdom Skytrain station. The building is large, red, and bearing the Nucasa name and logo. Aspire's Burnaby Centre is upstairs (access is from the parking lot).
The center is open and operating. Stay tuned for an Official Open House sometime early in the new year.
