Our Founders
The Reading Specialists' Association (Singapore) is initiated by two reading professionals: Audrey Lai Cheng Yip and Noel K.H. Chia. Both have been working collaboratively through a course that trains others to help struggling readers. Now they have put their heads together to set standards for reading education in Singapore. Both feel the need for such an association to provide formal certification of reading/literacy practitioners and professionals in Singapore.

Today, he is the only board certified educational therapist outside the United States registered with the Association of Educational Therapists based in Burbank, California,USA. HHe is also a registered counseling therapist with the International Association of Counselors and Therapists, Florida, USA and a registered special education teacher with the National Association of Special Educaton Teachers, USA.

Welcome To The Blog Of Reading Specialist Association Singapore
Who Are We?
The Reading Specialist Association ( Singapore Chapter) / RSAS (in short) was incorporated in March 2006 and gazetted in June of the same year. On board the commitee are the reading professionals, mainstream school teachers, allied educators and an occupational therapist; a good mix reflecting the association's view that reading encompassed psychological , social, cognitive and physiological factors. The boundary between reading disable and learning disabled is fast blurring. Reading disorders co-exist with many learning disorders. With the advent of inclusion in school settings, one who teaches children to read must be armed with a large repertoire of strategies to support in-depth knowledge in assessment and remediation.
