Germany based NGO Alphabetization e.V. is representing the Rabanus-Method®, a specialised method that focuses on both reading and writing. The Rabanus-Method® was developed in Germany by Katrin Rabanus.

Typically, we see around 20% of children in school that won’t succeed without special attention. This special attention requires (1) analytic tools detecting the source of failure, (2) research and application of additional individual methods, (3) additional staff and (4) further resources. The Rabanus-Method® features it all and is easy to implement.

Children who have not been able to learn to read in school already have suffered and experienced a history of failure. In addition to extraordinary education efforts, they need increased personal attention. In a Reading Nest®, focus is set on the individual. Only minimal administrative and organisational effort is needed. The Rabanus-Method® can be implemented in existing curricula and won’t interfere with ongoing school operations.

Alphabetization e.V. is dedicated to spreading this remarkable solution by setting up so called Reading Nests®. A Reading Nest® is an educational programme that includes a complete and easily transferable teaching concept for implementing the Rabanus- Method® into all different kinds of environments. A Reading Nest® can be set up in schools, youth centers, day care centers or at your own kitchen table.

Operating a Reading Nest® requires a license from Alphabetization e.V. We’ll train your staff (typically 3 days in total), offer operational support and monitor the qualitative development of your Reading Nest®.

We are happy to support you in setting up a Reading Nest®. Get in touch with us!
