Learning to love reading. This program is helping my child to communicate more and it makes her come out of her shell. I was very surprised to see her interactions with the class.

This was GREAT! despite our virtual learning nerves We were presently surprised at how much our son enjoyed this program online as the start of virtual learning had just started for our kindergartener and he hated it. The teacher was amazing and great at keeping the kids engaged. We did it through the summer it has made for an easier transition back to virtual learning for 1st grade. We plan to continue as supplement for my son because he goes to school in Spanish & Greek. This has been great for his english.

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.

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.
