Peer participation is great My child feels like he is an actual classroom with peers who also read and participate. Ms. Hope is certainly a great morale booster. It seems like the other children, as well as my child, are encouraged to read aloud and be proud.

Highly recommended online summer class!! Great online class for our rising third grader. He has been a struggling reader up until now, but this course was perfectly designed for any reader and the books were just his level. His teacher was excellent and kept it moving at a great pace. My son loved that there were kids from all over the states. We would definitely take another course with this program and highly recommend it to all our friends! Our son improved in fluency, reading comprehension and decoding mutisyllabic words.

This program is very organized This program is very organized, keep you informed, all materials you need you are given in time for class. Teacher is there on time, teacher is well prepared and keeps the class on track and is very good with the children. Everything I was told my child would learn to be better at happened. She now reads more fluent and with confidence.

Reading Speed Increased Dramatically This program has been amazing. My daughter improved her reading speed during the very first class session. This program has also sparked her interest in reading; she's since joined a book club. She has applied the skills learned by writing more creative, engaging paragraphs. I've recommended this course to my friends and relatives.

Not for advanced readers My children have been taking reading classes through this program for 3 years. Unfortunately, this is not a program for advanced readers. As an educator myself, I have been so impressed with the teaching and services provided.... Until my 3rd grader was enrolled in the 6th grade section because of her academic ability and was told the first week of class she was not welcome because she was too young. I wonder what content they are sharing in the middle school sections that's not appropriate for a mature 3rd grader? When I asked to speak to the supervisor, John Boyd, he would not respond to my email or return a phone call. All I was looking for was an explanation for why a student was ranked by age and not ability. He had a teacher supervisor email me to tell me he wouldn't talk to me... I will not be returning or recommending this program to anyone because of the lack of communication and professionalism from John Boyd.
