I, also, want to let you know that using Easyread has been such a positive experience for Jacob so far. He never objects to doing his lesson or the extra exercises asked of him. My family and I are thrilled to have found a program that certainly seems to be the answer. We all knew something wasn’t right for as much as I have worked with him. Even with an Elementary Education background (specializing in reading), I could not figure out what was blocking Jacob from being able to read. I had taught him so much phonemic awareness and was baffled as to why he could not use it to read. It was just never a natural process for him.

He is always ready to do what is asked of him with Easyread. I believe it is because of the positive manner in which Dave speaks, the personal letters/attention he receives, the engaging games/exercises, and he REALLY loves the prizes that come in the mail! He eagerly shows his friends and stores them in a special place. The final prize of an RC helicopter has him really thrilled. Flight is one of his passions!

One noticeable change in Jacob is that he is now often trying to read signs when we are out and about. He is decoding and really wants to figure out what the signs say. I am not pushing him to read at this time per your suggestion, but he sure is having fun decoding words here and there 🙂

He really loves to be read to and his comprehension is amazing! Homeschooling, over this past year, I eased off of insisting he try to read and write as it just was such a struggle (and I was realizing there was something blocking his ability to do so). I simply read the school material to him and then we discuss it. He usually takes it further on his own accord and makes something that relates to what we have read about. He is very creative! I believe these things have kept him academically sound while we wait for his reading and writing to “catch up.”

I know I have rambled on, but I just want you to know that Easyread has made a special 8 year old boy in the USA very happy! Even grandma mentioned that he seems happier lately. We are sure it is because of Easyread. He seems relieved to know that he’s not alone and that someone all the way from England is helping him read!

As a parent working through the 20/21 school year in distance learning with 3 elementary kids, there were at least some positive upsides. For example, my daughter Laine’s (2nd grade, 8 years old at start) reading ability (when she is such a bright, exuberant, creative, SMART kid) kept me up at night. Something was not connecting. No amount of pressure or more reading was making up for the missing pieces in her ability to read. I was literally awake in the middle of the night, by chance watching Dr. Morgan’s Facebook ad and knew he was talking about my daughter. I started crying and felt I had been given such a gift. By morning in February 2021 she was signed up and on her way to decoding and cracking her reading struggles. It’s not been easy all the time, we have struggled through some lessons with tears and frustration. BUT today, Laine passed her 223 lesson, earned her helicopter (the code words/spy prizes have been a great motivator), and has gone from a 1.5 grade reading level to reading at a 5th grade level with limited assistance in only 10 months. I am so grateful for the Easyread program. Their attention to detail, one on one phone calls and Zoom meet ups, quick response time to questions, and consideration for my kid’s development has made us feel cared for each step of the way. If you have looked into the Easyread program and David’s description of your child’s reading journey hits home, run don’t walk to sign up. It has been one of our favorite blessings of this crazy year and I shout it’s praises to anyone who has a struggling reader.

I was really skeptical about this for my 8 year old, how can 15 minutes a day and video, and games work? He struggled with blending and decoding. He know can use the trainer texts faster then I can figure out the word myself to see if he is correct. The system moves as he needs and the personal support is amazing.

What a fantastic programme! Our 8 yr old made such rapid progress I began to doubt myself whether she had had issues in the first place! When we looked at the video recording made at the beginning of the programme, her progress was remarkable within just a few weeks. She asks to do the session every day and complains if I don't have time - a massive difference from a child who used to invent the most incredible excuses to avoid reading before this. She now reads books in her own time and is even starting to get her head around spelling - all in less than 2 months. The personalised support from the Easyread facilitators is much better than I expected from an online course and the prizes are great too! Thank you Easyread!

Our daughter has loved the Easyread program. She thinks she is just playing fun games on the computer but she's actually improving her reading and spelling skills. Her Spelling grades have improved from 50% to 90% in only a few months. Thank you Easyread for an amazing program! I would highly recommend your program for any children struggling to read and spell.

Wow, this program works! My 9-year old became a more fluent reader within weeks of starting, and she really enjoyed doing the assignments (structured like fun games) every day! She never complained about it once, even 2 months in she was excited to decode the words and play the games in Easyread. And she has so much more confidence now. Thank you Easyread!
