Press Release
PayRange Grows 1,325% to Rank in Top 100 Fastest Growing in North America on Deloitte’s 2020 Technology Fast 500™
PORTLAND, OR (November 17, 2020) – PayRange announced it ranked 83 on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500
, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America now in its 26th year. PayRange grew 1,325% during the previous 3-year period.
PayRange’s Chief Executive Officer, Paresh Patel, credits the revenue growth to its passionate team that develops and markets innovative payment technology to an industry ripe for innovation. He said, “The automated retail industry, characterized by small ticket payments made traditionally with cash and coin, had been largely left behind by incumbent cashless payment providers. Recognizing the opportunity and leveraging our industry experience, we invented mobile payment technology designed specifically for this market that not only brought touchless payments to these machines, but also elevated the overall experience. We’re thankful to our customers for deploying our solution which is at the forefront of transforming an industry that has otherwise seen little payment innovation in over 50 years.”
“For more than 25 years, we’ve been honoring companies that define the cutting edge and this year’s Technology Fast 500 list is proof positive that technology — from software and digital media platforms, to biotech — truly does permeate so many facets of our lives,” said Paul Silverglate, Vice Chairman, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “We congratulate this year’s winners, especially during a time when innovation is needed more than ever to address the monumental challenges posed by the pandemic.”

2026 National Study Reveals Increasing Costs of High-Quality Reading Tutoring Across America
Denver, CO, United States, 13th Feb 2026 – A new national study conducted by The Reading Guru – the 2026 National Reading Tutoring Cost Study – has shed light on the increasing costs of high-quality reading tutoring in the 25 largest metro areas across the United States.
The data, gathered from a comprehensive analysis of tutoring fees charged by more than 80 tutoring services nationally, highlights both the high overall costs that parents are paying to ensure their kids learn to read and significant variations in pricing from city to city.
Key findings from the study include:
- The average cost nationally for a 60-minute session with a Science of Reading / Orton-Gillingham tutor is now $113.06.
- Since 2024, the average cost of Science of Reading / Orton-Gillingham tutoring has increased by 4.6% percent.
- For a typical 9-month course of tutoring, once per week, that amounts to an average cost nationally of $4,409!
- Los Angeles has taken the crown for the highest average cost per-60 minute session, coming in at $185.00, up a whopping 13.5%.
- Parents in New York, NY are saving a little bit, as the market now suffers only the second highest average cost per 60-minute session, down from first, coming in at $161.67, down 1.6%.
- Parents in Washington, DC, face an average cost of $156.67 per hour, up 8.4%, making it one of the priciest markets for Orton-Gillingham tutoring.
- Phoenix, AZ still has the lowest Orton-Gillingham tutoring costs in the nation, with an average cost of $75.42 per session, but that number is up 15% since the last study.
In light of the substantial declines in reading performance seen in the recent National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) report, commonly known as The Nation’s Report Card, the cost and availability of Orton-Gillingham reading tutoring has become a real issue.
Since many school districts still haven’t switched to Science of Reading-based curricula, parents increasingly rely on private tutoring to help their children catch up. The costs, unfortunately, can be significant, ranging from $4,409 for a typical 9-month course of tutoring, once per week, up to $11,758 for a year-long course of tutoring, twice per week.
“This updated study demonstrates the significant costs for Orton-Gillingham tutoring overall, and also helps us see the differences in the cost of Orton-Gillingham reading tutoring services between different metro areas,” said Joanna Brown, founder and CEO of The Reading Guru, a leading provider of online Orton-Gillingham reading tutoring. “Working with an online provider can offer significant savings for parents in high-cost cities, but it’s worth noting that as tutors increasingly work online, costs are going up even in less expensive tutoring markets.”
Additionally, Brown explains, “This year, even more reading tutoring companies were non-responsive or completely maxed out – no available slots for new students. It’s so important that kids with dyslexia or other reading difficulties get the right help, which means Orton-Gillingham-based tutoring, when they need it. Don’t give up! Parents should keep contacting tutors until they find a qualified reading tutor, in-person or online, with the right OG tutoring skills.”
The Science of Reading emphasizes the need for systematic, explicit instruction in phonics, phonemic awareness, and decoding skills, all of which are central components of the Orton-Gillingham approach, noted Joanna Brown. “Orton-Gillingham tutoring can play a critical role in closing literacy gaps and fostering academic success, especially as kids are increasingly exposed to addictive apps and AI.”
With a growing recognition of the importance of evidence-based approaches to literacy education, Orton-Gillingham stands out as a research-supported method for helping struggling readers, particularly those with dyslexia.
The study also revealed notable mid-range markets, with Miami, Stamford (CT), Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, New Jersey, Baltimore, Orlando, Dallas, Tampa, Denver, and Atlanta averaging between $95.50 and $128.67 per 60-minute session with a high-quality reading tutor.
Despite the wide range of costs, the demand for Orton-Gillingham tutoring continues to increase across the nation, reflecting its effectiveness in supporting individuals with dyslexia and other reading difficulties.
