I like Easyread so much and I think Easyead is amazing because it is fun and it really helped me learn to read better. I think it is creative, because it has cool stories and I really like the games and mostly the prizes. When Easyread is over, I am really going to miss it alot. And that is all I have to say.

I think that Jess doing easy read, helped her enormously. Jess is now doing
well at school and at the same levels as her peers.

Thankyou, Sandra

Her reading has improved a great deal since she started easyread.She is now off the school reading scheme but more importantly is reading independently for pleasure.She enjoys the Jacqueline Wilson stories and Enid Blyton.
She still has a slight tendency to guess words but it is very much less than it was.She is much better equipped to decode more complex words which she used to guess at wildly!
Thank you,
Kate

We have made it this far and she appears to be doing really well. We had a parent teacher evening the other day and her teacher has said how much she has blossomed. I think that she has really gained in confidence since doing this,

Dear David and Jayne,
Thank you again for your excellent program as you can see Courtney very much enjoys reading now and is looking forward to reading the other books in this series. She has already organised for us purchase the next book which I am more than happy to do. We are so very pleased that she gone from being a reluctant reader to a child who thoroughly enjoys books,reading independently or out loud to us. I know that without the support of your program we would not have seen this type of development in her reading skills. As a classroom teacher myself, I have told a number of parents about the program and it’s benefits. We have decided not to go on with level 5. As I mentined in a recent email, I will continue to support and monitor Courtney’s development. I have her copy of the easyread characters and when she experiences difficulty we refer back to this for assistance and we will continue to use this method. I am please to say the guessing has stopped and she looks much more carefully for letter patterns and uses her knowledge of sounds to assist with the decoding of difficult words.Again thank you for your ongoing support throughout the program.
Kind regards
Helen

Thank you for the course…

Thank you for the course really think it has helped Alex on his way, so good now to see him picking up a chapter book and reading this from cover to cover.

We have been doing Easyread for 6 weeks…

We have been doing Easyread for 6 weeks now and Saffron is making excellent progress. She is becoming very fluent and accurate at reading the sounds where there is no text, I am impressed with her memory especially when she gets a picture we have not had for a while. The pictures and one liners about each image which gives you the word sound is certainly working for Saffron. She does however become a little bored with the repetitive nature of the Jungle game at the start of each lesson so we are now just completing this every other day. Saffron loves the game randomiser at the end of the reading session and looks forward to this each day.

Stephen and I are both pleased with…

Stephen and I are both pleased with the easyread and he still enjoys doing it although he prefers some of the games to others and tries to let the game selector choose twice and I laugh when its always the same on that day. His confidence and capability has much improved, and he is brilliant with the story and I forget the name but the code type wording, pictures. Sometimes with his school homework reading he tries to guess the odd word but we do emphasise still decoding. he actually says his teacher does not do it properly easyread is better!!! Thanks

Thanks again for everything and I just wanted to wish you great success with Easyread. It is a great program, and the support you give is second to none.
Yours Sincerely

Just had the most amazing experience…

Just had the most amazing experience with Alex reading. We are reading the ladybird read with me series and although the words are easy and repetitive he read it through with ease, fluency and the confidence that he could do it. Trust me I know we have a long way to go but the difference in his attitude ( i just can’t find the words!!!!) is i believe half the battle. One happy mum.

I am so thrilled with how…

I am so thrilled with how she has taken to Easyread and i am still extolling its virtues to everyone who will listen!!

He is really doing well with easyread…

He is really doing well with easyread and loves using the bamboo tablet. He is now reading in bed every night and is finding his school work much easier.

I have told the Literacy co-ordinator at the school about Easyread and she has passed the information on to the parents of another child who has similar problems Andrew’s.

We are very pleased with Andrew’s progress as he is a much happier boy now.

Many thanks

Carolyn

I'm just confirming that all is well…

I’m just confirming that all is well and although he’s not supposed to have he is already showing improvement in his school reading, which has given him tremendous confidence and a bigger incentive to carry on with the Easyread system.

Sophie has done very, very well…

Sophie has done very, very well with easyread since she started last spring. She is reading quite difficult words and her confindence has shot up.  I have been very happy with easyread.Thank-you very much for all the help you have given Sophie.
Sincerely, Cheryl

Joe has progressed really well and…

Joe has progressed really well and his teachers have even commented how improved his souding out and reading is. His confidence has grown considerably and he will now attempt to read in public, signs names of shops ect. His confidence has grown to the point that he is now attending karate and drum lessons which he would not have entertained before. Many thanks I would highly recommend the course. Dean

I am noticing a difference…

I am noticing a difference in Rebeccas everyday reading now. She’s still guessing the occasional word, but hopefully over the next month or two she will stop it completely. Her spelling is starting to improve – I think the spelling games are great!.

Thanks and regards
Sandra

Overall my husband and I are…

Overall my husband and I are very happy with the progress he has made using your system and can’t thank you enough!

– Jacki

I would also like to say that…

I would also like to say that his school are very pleased with his progress in reading and are particularly impressed by his willingness to tackle long words.
– Elena

Overall I have seen an amazing improvement…

Overall I have seen an amazing improvement in her skills where reading, writing and spelling is concerned. She has read 3 chapter books over the past 2 months. When we started easyread she struggled to read a page of her take home reader from school and chapter books were something she avoided. So yes I think there has been very pleasing progress but I know, I need to continue to stay on top of her skills level development so that she doesn’t slip back into old habits.
Kind Regards
Helen

Christian is still a little hesitant…

Christian is still a little hesitant in reading books but after only 6 weeks of using the Easyread system my husband and I have noticed a big difference ……. he now will try to decode words …….something that he would never felt confident or comfortable doing in the past.

We love the fact that it is only 15 minutes max a day …….. sometimes Christian is a little reluctant to start but really enjoys it when he gets going. To me it is amazing how such short lessons can have such a big impact.

We know that we have some way to go but now that we have signed up to Easyread we feel that there is hope for our son after watching him struggle and suffer during his first 2 years of school.

For me it would help if there was some framework that I could refer to outlining what is in each stage …..i.e. lessons x to x have some words without characters. As I am the main adult helping Christian I want to be the one around when he transitions to a new stage – currently I feel a little in the dark.

Thank you.

Caitlin's reading has improved a lot…

Caitlin’s reading has improved a lot since she started the programme.She can now read a wider range of books and her reading at school has improved too.

Everything is going well so far…

Everything is going well so far with Easy Read and we have seen an improvement in Alister’s reading and confidence in sounding out words (reduced guessing).
So all good so far from our end.

Aidan is de-coding and blending quickly and accurately…

Aidan is de-coding and blending quickly and accurately on Easyread. He’s reading street signs when he’s in the car (he says it’s easier to read because the car is moving-curious!?).He’s no longer guessing when he reads his school book and he is persistent at de-coding and successful 99% of the time.
We’re still trying eye-tracking ,sometimes only 3 times per day but guess what? He’s achieving tracking across his mid-line 8 times out of 10 before moving his head or looking away instead of 3 times out of 10, so there has been a big improvement in two weeks. We’ve still got a long way to go to acheive 10 & 10 but I think we might be able to do it.
Best Wishes Audrey

We are progressing well with the reading…

We are progressing well with the reading. Harry even got a little Certifcate from school on friday for excellent reading and spelling.

The code words really keep him motivated so I am very glad of them even after a long school day doing yet another lesson all be it of a differnet sort, we have had no trouble getting Harry to sit down for 10 mins to do easy read he is always happy to this.

Thank you

Heather
