“Excellent teacher with great control of the class and ability to keep them engaged. My daughter just turned 5, but reads beyond grade level so we put her in the 1st grade class. I was nervous how that would work. It ended up being an incredibly helpful thing for my daughter. She finally got the just right level of challenge she needed and her reading has taken off. Amazing!” - Mary Beth

“My daughter always waited for her online reading class. She enjoyed the whole experience. I appreciate the time that the teacher took to talk about some reading recommendations for my daughter. Overall it was a great experience.” - Yanitza

“My daughter looks forward to the Reading class every week. The teachers have all been very enthusiastic and kind. The books are engaging, too. Highly recommend this program.” - Magaly

“My grandson started out in the 1st grade reading program and has improved each time. This program turned his attitude around about reading and gave him confidence in himself. What more can you ask for? We just signed up for our 4th program.” - Doreen

“Samuel’s level of reading and confidence has improved immensely since he began participating in this program. We’ve seen a great improvement in his ability to sound out words, recognize more sight words, his ability to read more fluently and with expression. We really appreciated Ms. Monroe’s teaching style. She really made reading a fun experience for our son. We’re looking forward to continuing to have Samuel participate in the program.” - Angie

“This class has been awesome for my daughter. This is the second one we did and we plan to do a third. Miss Brown was amazing. In fact, both teachers we had really cared about the kids and it shows.” - Kelley
