How Hard Can It Be? Mastery of English Literacy takes readers on a personal and educational journey through the complexities of learning to read and write English. Written by a parent who taught her own children to read using free resources and structured literacy methods, this book blends memoir, neuroscience, and evidence-based pedagogy. From the history of writing and reading, the brain's development in learning literacy, to the impact of neurodiversity, trauma, and systemic inequities, it explains why traditional teaching methods often fail and what actually works. Through stories, research, and practical guidance, readers will learn how to support children, advocate for effective instruction, and foster lifelong literacy. This book is a roadmap for parents, educators, and anyone seeking to understand and empower learners in the 21st century.
