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?
Now, 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
