Success stories

Real stories from real people

Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

Amy M.

14 Phonics lessons

While holding 1 hour sessions 2x a week, my son's reading skills DID NOT progress. She agreed to increase the sessions for 6 weeks, but 4 sessions later advised me that she was taking the last two weeks off. This provided me with 2 remaining sessions and 3 weeks of summer left. Honestly, after the money spent, we would have been better off using the KUMON learning center and/or Hooked on Phonics programs.
Heidi C.

22 Phonics lessons

My son had his own cubby and notebook where he recorded all of the new material he learned. She took the time to really know him and even tailored his lessons around. For example, he has a fear/fascination with thunder and weather so she sought out reading passages that involved that. In addition to teaching phonics, she also realized the importance of him learning vital study skills such as highlighting facts in passages and incorporated writing skills.
Grace L.

48 Phonics lessons

Ms. C. has been tutoring my two children (6 y.o. boy and 4 y.o. girl) since last summer. My kids love her and follow her lessons every time. My 6 year old's reading skill has improved tremendously. In the beginning he barely read a word, but now he can read a short story. My daughter is starting to learn phonics and she enjoys learning from Ms. C. She begins to get interested in books and likes to imitate how Ms. C reads a story to her.
