22 Phonics lessons

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. I also appreciated the notes she wrote up after each lesson so I knew what they worked on and her willingness to talk with me outside of the hour to address any concerns I had.
Heidi R.

34 Phonics lessons

Mike has been working with our son since last March. We found him as we were frustrated with our son getting no help at school. Our son has come so far, and has so many more "tools" to tackle his phonics problem and continues to improve all the time. The school just kept saying "keep reading with him." Mike knew it wasn't a fluency issue, it was phonics. He also is able to bring our son into a good mood no matter what his attitude is when I drop him off.
