What our parents say…
“I want to thank you for all the work you have done with Mason over the past school year. Your efforts have made a tremendous impact on him. We have both seen a difference. He can now easily read things he struggled with before starting with you. He is also now to a point I don’t have to sit with him to get homework done because he is reading and comprehending on his own.
Just last week the teacher sent home some benchmark testing for reading/vocabulary/comprehension that showed the improvement; same test given once in December (right at the beginning of his sessions) and the other taken just last week. His score on first test was 8 out of 22 correct. The second was 16 out of 22 (the required number for passing). He was very proud of himself. :). He sees the difference. Your work has been great for him. I am grateful.“
Mason’s mom.
“Dear Nne,
Many thanks, I received the assessment result you sent. I am glad to see there was a big improvement in his processing speed and working memory. I must say he has improved remarkably in his school work this term.
Kind Regards.“
