Reading Ready is an emergent word reading program developed by Dr. Katie Pace Miles, a professor of early literacy development at Brooklyn College, CUNY. The program is currently implemented by CUNY Reading Corps in NYC public schools with hundreds of CUNY education majors trained in the program and leading interventions in over 70 city schools. American University as well as 14 other universities are also using Reading Ready to train university students to tutor striving readers at local schools. Reading Ready is typically used as a one-to-one intervention, but it can also be used in small group or whole class settings.
