Meet our founder, Beth Gaskill
I spent years working in PK-8th grade classrooms and reading intervention programs and I saw kids facing the same reading problems over and over again. Because we were teaching them the wrong way.
I discovered this wasn't a reading problem I needed to solve. This was a reading problem I could prevent, by closing the gaps in learning in the early years — from babies to third grade and every step in between. And Big City Readers was born!
