Shaneika W.

64 Phonics lessons

I typically don’t write reviews but feel that I must share the experience that my son has had with Meredith. My son has always been behind in Reading. I have tried all kinds of programs, Hooked on Phonics, Kumon, ABC Mouse, Reading Eggs, and even other tutors. In November 2013, Dominic was diagnosed with Convergence Insufficiency, where his eyes do not “team” well for the purpose of reading.
Jeanne C.

6 Phonics lessons

We have Helen assisting our 6 year old boy on phonics. She is patient and resourceful. Helen is very computer-savvy and has suggested many good websites. I am very impressed with her dedication in making the classes interesting to learn. My son enjoys the class and is looking forward to meet with Ms. Helen weekly. We are very fortunate and delighted to have Helen. We look forward to working with her on a continuous basis.
Karen F.

42 Phonics lessons

After her initial assessment, she quickly identified my daughter's decoding problems and developed a strategy to work with her. Paige's French language skills were crucial in teaching my daughter the differences between French vs. English phonics. Paige has also been great in helping her with writing/spelling skills. Lastly, the real testimonial is that my daughter loves her! Paige is very patient, motivating and makes learning fun!
