His twin who is also 10 years old works with Kaitlin for writing and novel studies. Thanks to Kaitlin she is above grade level. She also loves going to class and talks about the novels she reads all the time. Kaitlin is very enthusiastic and has really built my daughter's self-esteem. My youngest, 8, is dyslexic. Kaitlin uses a program designed for dyslexic readers to teach him to read. He went from a beginning 1st grade reading level to a 2nd grade reading level in just 6 months.

Jenna tailors activities and games to teach/play with my child online to make learning fun. When my child occasionally acts out and doesn't feel like going to class (like any 6 yrs old would), Jenna can always bring my child's attention back to the screen with her cheerful encouragement and fun games. After a few months, we can clearly see the improvement in my child's reading skills and overall confidence. Thank you, Jenna!
