Hi there! Thank you for stopping by. My name is Johanna and I’m the creator and founder of STOP READ GO, an early literacy and early reading company.
Before I tell you more about this company and how it all started, let me tell you a little bit about myself:
A couple of years ago, I left the IT world and decided to stay at home when my little boy was born. He changed my life and made me look at life from a different perspective: through his eyes.
Being able to be with him day and night, allowed me to closely observe how he plays, grows and learns. I got to see, firsthand, his mind at work. It is an amazing sight. It’s something I would not miss for the world!
My little guy started reading when he was only 2 years old! But this was no accident. This seemingly impossible task was accomplished thanks to a method I developed that takes advantage of a child’s natural language abilities. My son went from reading simple words to reading entire children’s novels, all before he turned 5! Isn’t that amazing? Since then, he’s read thousands of books and is reading way above his grade level. Now, he’s even writing his own books!
For this reason, I want to encourage and help other parents, caregivers and educators do the same.
How? By sharing my story, my unique method and by designing one-of-a-kind early literacy products that make Reading easier for you to teach and easier for them to learn.
About the company:
STOP READ GO is an early literacy company, created with little children in mind. This site focuses on introducing the World of Reading to babies, toddlers (1-3), preschoolers (3-5) and kindergarteners (5-6).
The idea is not to force kids to memorize a list of random words or rules from a piece of paper, but to make Reading part of their daily lives, routines and activities in a way that is more tangible, meaningful, and intuitive to them.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
-Johanna
