Does This Sound Like Your Child?

  • Guess words instead of reading them

  • Read the same word differently each time

  • Avoid reading aloud

  • Cry during homework

  • Struggle with spelling despite practicing

  • Say they're "bad at reading"

  • Work incredibly hard but still fall behind

Many bright children struggle because they haven't yet received the kind of reading instruction their brains need.

The good news? That's something we can change.

Why Families Choose

The Virtual Classroom

Every child begins with a personalized diagnostic, not guesswork.

Every lesson is taught live by Structured Literacy Specialists.

We use evidence-based Structured Literacy aligned with the Science of Reading.

Your child receives LIVE, individualized instruction, not pre-recorded lectures.

You'll receive honest progress updates and measurable goals on a weekly and monthly basis.

We partner with families every step of the way.

Before We Teach

We discover why your child is struggling.

Our Reading Success Consultation and diagnostic assessment help identify whether the challenge involves:

  • Phonemic Awareness

  • Decoding

  • Fluency

  • Spelling

  • Vocabulary

  • Reading Comprehension

No guessing.

No one size fits all program.

Just a clear understanding of where your child is today, and the best path forward.

Ms. Burchell and the team at The Virtual Classroom have been a lifesaver! This academic year, we discovered that our son needed a lot of help learning to read. We felt overwhelmed and worried. But, Ms. Burchell was very responsive, quickly enrolled my son, and has been helpful if we need to make schedule changes. Since working with The Virtual Classroom, he has shown tremendous growth very quickly! He is putting himself out there, sounding out words, and feeling confident in his reading. Without this incredible team of teachers, we don't know where we would be! I highly recommend The Virtual Classroom as they have helped my son and my family!

Our family is grateful for the support and dedication of The Virtual Classroom. The instructors took the time to understand our child's unique learning needs and communication style. Mrs. Burchell, in particular, impressed us with a deep knowledge of teaching and learning pedagogy, applying effective strategies that made a real difference in our child's progress. We also saw willingness to collect feedback and adapt along the way. The Virtual Classroom's interactive activities kept our child engaged/helped keep her motivated. The thoughtfully designed lessons and dynamic teaching methods made virtual learning a viable option for our family. We recommend this program to families seeking personalized, high-quality education .

My daughter has dyslexia and struggles not only with reading and spelling but with math. Ali worked with my 10 yo daughter three times a week and never once did my daughter complain she had to do tutoring. She really enjoyed her time with her. When she started school this year, my daughter told me she was the only one in her class to get a problem right “and that was because of Mrs. Ali”. I highly recommend her for tutoring!

Last summer my son really needed extra help. He was a “Covid” kid so his kindergarten year was cut short and no school year was real until 3rd grade. He struggled, even with reading intervention in school he still needed extra help. Using The Virtual Classroom last summer really helped his abilities & gave him some extra confidence! He started this year with reading intervention, but after the New Year he was removed & all his teachers are so thrilled with progress he has made. I don’t think we would be where we are if it wasn’t for Ms. Burchell last summer!

My 7 year old is thriving at Mrs. Burchell’s Homeschool Hybrid program. She has learned so much this year and thoroughly enjoys her time there.

Our daughter has been working with Mrs. Burchell for almost a year. When she started at the end of 2nd grade, our daughter was at a 1st grade reading level. She is now almost at her grade level, 3rd grade! We are amazed at the progress she has made over the past year! When reviewing our daughter's progress, Mrs. Burchell could barely contain her excitement. Her passion for helping kids improve their reading skills shines through. We couldn't be happier with her help and the progress our daughter has made!

We started using Mrs. Burchell for one on one tutoring for ELA to fill in the gaps we were missing from the jump from public school to homeschool & my daughter absolutely thrived with her instruction. She is so compassionate and brilliant in her ways of teaching - so when she decided to open a homeschool-hybrid program, we followed her there! Now both my kiddos attend, and they are thriving. Mrs. Burchell finds such unique ways to keep our kids engaged and interested & her knowledge in the field is unparalleled. I love that she makes social-emotional learning top priority so that my kiddos feel confident in all that they do with her & it follows home - setting them up with a wonderful growth mindset! I’ll always recommend anything Mrs. Burchell has to offer!

I recommend Ali's services. She is very professional and deeply passionate about your child and their success. We did a 12 week after school program and my daughters reading levels definitely went up. It was a great experience and my daughter enjoyed her sessions.
