Overall, the program is worth attending because my granddaughter is now able to read sight words and develop more confidence as a beginning first grade reader.

We enjoyed meeting with other students who enjoyed reading during the summertime. Our teacher was very knowledgeable and provided positive encouragement to each student. We gained skills that will help in Grade 4. We highly recommend this program!

So far this has been a pretty good experience. My son describes the teacher as great and sweet and kind. He is an incoming sophomore in high school so we wanted to find a reading/educational program to help prepare him. Help get him ready for what is next to come. It was very easy to select a program and there is a good variety of schedules available. On the first day yesterday the students were asked to read a portion of the first chapter and the instructor would then interact with the students. There is also an online learning course for them to do every week. So far this is working out great.

Great Teacher, that was concerned about every child's progression. She was there for a purpose to get the child to learn but in a creative and fun way. The books selected for this reading program were entertaining to the kids. My special needs child learned phonics, sight words, and reading comprehension. They also assigned homework every weekend, and it was online which reinforced what she taught in class. Very pleased with the program. She was inclusive, and wonderful to my grandson.

This was a great way to introduce reading skills and keep our son engaged during the summer. He feels much more engaged in reading and learning letters and more prepared for Pre-K.
