A few of our favorite high-fives.

Reading was a worry when I decided to home school. But so happy to have found your courses. Now I know when my kids are older, they too can learn … at a young age. The joy seeing your child read is magical.

My son has made great progress reading. He was able to read Green Eggs and Ham on his own before he turned 4. My entire family and his teachers are very proud! Your course work really helped me and I’m very happy I got it.

I bought this reading program and the lessons don’t just help with reading. They have helped my parenting skills, too.

Our 2 year old was so interested in learning HOW to read, but we didn’t know how to support her. When I … implemented your strategies, our daughter flourished. She is now reading up to 4 letter words at the age of 3! It is very astonishing and fulfilling to see.
