Testimonials
Learning
"I cannot speak highly enough about Ready Set Read. After struggling with reading and writing in school and receiving minimal support we reached out to Jennifer from Ready Set Read. Jennifer was able to immediately start working with our son and within only a few weeks we noticed a huge difference, our son was actually reading and writing! Jennifer is so knowledgeable and has years of experience; she was able to immediately understand our son's challenges and design an individual curriculum to fit his needs. Jennifer is kind and personable and our son actually enjoys his tutoring sessions. She even mailed him a certificate of achievement! Jennifer has also gone above and beyond and helped us to work within our school district to request additional support. Our son has struggled for years and again it is only through Ready Set Read that our son has been able to grasp the fundamentals of reading and writing and gain back the confidence that he lost. He is also now reading and writing at grade level after less than 2 months. I enthusiastically recommend Ready Set Read and am eternally grateful for the progress that my son is making every day."
Confidence
“The help my daughter received from Sarah at Ready, Set, Read! was life changing for her educational path. Prior to her 1:1 work with Sarah, my daughter lacked serious self confidence in reading. She struggled through both kindergarten and first grade, tinkering on the edge of retainment due to her low test scores. Sarah helped her enjoy reading & spelling. She made it fun & exciting for her. We noticed extreme progress not only with her confidence, but also her test scores after the help she received. We’re so thankful for all of Sarah’s help & would highly recommend Ready, Set, Read! to anyone who needs a little extra assistance.”
