Ensure your children's academic success by helping them develop their reading skills with the Glifing method
- Discover their reading profile
- Train with them using video games
- Improve Your Academic Performance
Does your child need help improving their reading skills?
Children with reading difficulties may feel less capable despite having average intelligence.
Our mission is to support at-risk children so they can thrive in school, because we know it positively impacts every aspect of their lives.
We work every day to make reading a pleasure for everyone.
⚠️ The Threat of Academic Failure
Reading difficulties account for up to 60% of academic failure (Lyon et al. 2003).
We cannot accept an education system in which 20% of students graduate with a “diploma” in academic failure, often leading to lifelong disadvantage.
Within this 20%, many students struggle because they started primary school with difficulties learning to read and write, developing fluent literacy skills, and understanding written texts.
They struggled with reading, found studying difficult, and fell further behind their peers with each passing school year.
Reading difficulties have a neurobiological origin, and the good news is that, thanks to the brain’s plasticity, reading skills can be improved through appropriate training..
The Problem with Other Automated Methods
- Unreliable results
- Without professional guidance
- More marketing than science
- Little or no personalization
Why does Glifing work?
- Detailed progress reports
- Professional Support
- Based on scientific evidence
- Highly personalized training
How we do it?
We evaluate
Through a test Glifing test (designed by specialists and used in universities, hospitals, neurological institutes, and by thousands of educational psychologists), we assess speed, accuracy, and comprehension to create a reading profile for our student.
Reading speed and accuracy are indicators of the level of reading automaticity.
Automaticity is necessary for good reading comprehension.
We analyze
The program communicates with the online platform automatically.
The platform processes the assessment data and compares it to the scoring rubrics Glifing based on the child’s grade level and age (the standards are developed using a large, local sample and are analyzed by a research team from the School of Psychology at the University of Barcelona).
Thanks to this, we immediately obtain accurate information about the child’s reading level.
We train
The Method Glifing method consists of a large number of training sessions tailored to each child’s needs.
With the data collected and processed on the platform, we can design an personalized training plan that addresses the child’s specific needs.
The platform also automatically records the progress of the workout so that the trainer can adjust it at any time.
20 minutes a day. 4 days a week.
Glifing sessions consist of a wide variety of video games designed by specialists to develop reading skills without the child feeling exhausted or frustrated.
By doing short 20-minute sessions each day, 4 days a week, the student can advance through one reading course in just 5 months.
What does Glifing include?
-
Determined by our reading efficiency index, which is calculated by comparing a student’s reading speed with the percentage of errors on the questions based on that text. This comparison helps us identify the specific areas that require targeted training: comprehension work, speed work, a combination of both, or independent reading.
-
We identify the starting point for the training and set goals based on the reader’s profile. After 5 months of training, progress is re-evaluated to assess improvement.
- GlifingGo uses the Response to Intervention (RTI) methodology. The assessment determines the starting point and triggers the intervention plan. This plan is adjusted and modified as needed based on session records, assessments, and re-assessments.
- Through the platform, each user systematically and individually trains the skills involved in reading. In this way, they learn to read, overcome potential difficulties, and improve their academic performance.
-
The training sessions are designed to motivate participants with fun games that combine content to help them develop decoding skills and reading comprehension.
-
More than 45,000 activities are available.
-
Our team of educators and psychologists, with extensive experience in reading training, provides ongoing guidance to ensure you always know what the next step is.
