Good course Don t expect exactly whats advertised

Good course If your child isn t reading going in they won t be reading coming out as is advertised Your child WILL show progress towards some skills which will eventually LEAD to reading

My boys although they did not want to

My boys although they did not want to take the course at the end were able to find enjoyment in the book Animal Farm The class experience was not something they wanted to participate in at first but found it to be helpful I was hoping that the comprehension level would be something better explained and identified with one of my boys but overall they feel they took some of this experience as a positive influence for their upcoming start into high school Perhaps more one on one time in areas but then again I was not in the classroom setting and can t really voice an opinion on how much attention was provided on an individual level The teacher was very nice and really seemed to love what she does which is a positive

Class periods

I think that the class session period was one week too long because I was mostly studying for the class but had little time to prepare for school I would like it if the class ended one week before school so we would have the chance to prepare ourselves for school

I thought the class was well

I thought the class was well structured the instructor clearly answered my questions with direct answers as a parent that was important to me I was looking for improvement in my daughters overall understanding of what she reads Its uncertain if she gained in that area I also think that if the students have a summer packet involving English work that should be reviewed and used as foundation on teaching reading development

This program had very great staff

This program had very great staff Teacher seem well informed of what children needed in order to effectively practice reading This program does cause for a lot of independent work My daughter enjoyed feeling like a collage student and she successfully completed her expectation She did state that she felt it didn t help with her comprehension skills but it did increase her reading

Great program though difficult virtual experience for young children

I only give 3 because of the online experience A classroom experience would have benefitted my daughter more No fault of the program or teachers but had I signed up 2 weeks later I probably would not have due to the pandemic BUT the program was great The teacher was attentive and engaging My daughter did learn how to read small sound out words and sight words by the end of the program even if she hated sitting in front of a computer I would recommend this program as it is originally intended in a classroom setting

Good program the first time taking the course

After taking the course a couple of times - the content format has become predictable and kids need a variety more in-depth discussions regarding the books they are reading

I had 2 students 4th and 6th grade enrolled

The class did help my son become a faster reader That is the main reason for registering I think it would have been better to receive the material for the class in the mail prior to the first session as there was a sizable amount of preparation for the parent in making sure my 10 year old got the most out of the class The instructor was terrific He even called to talk about my son s progress

Overall great program and concept

Great program to help a child learn how to comprehend what they have read The reading books was great for my son The decoding of words was right on target I felt that 5 weeks was not enough for a child to become a lover of reading If child had to make up a class and the schedule provided did not work an independent study is optional which I feel is not appropriate for a 8 year child

need more reading time

I had 2 students 4th and 6th grade in the summer reading program This was a new program for us I believe with practice and being consistent in going over the lessons and skills taught my students will improve The writing and how to read textbook portions were really impressive lessons that I wish I had in school My son enjoyed and will benefit from the speed reading skill
