Reviews
"Bait and switch, endless excuses as to why there was zero communication between parties and total waste of time. As someone who donated to support this group I was absolutely appauled."
"I worked as a Coordinator for Children's Literacy Center. At least 95% of the students improved their reading skills to the grade level that they were in. Teachers were so anxious to have their lower performing students be accepted into the program. It really works well."
"I actually wrote much of this reading program, but that isn't the subject of my review. In 2003 or so I tutored a second-grade girl using Peak Reader. She was behind grade in reading but "graduated" Peak Reader at or above grade. Ten years later the girl's mother contacted me to say Peak Reader and the tutoring with it had had amazing long-lasting results. My student, she said, had completed middle school and high school with no grade below an A and was on her way to a major university on a full scholarship. Could it be this way for every student? Maybe not, but Peak Reader is clearly a good place to start."
"My son went there many years ago and it helped him. I'm glad that there is a free program to help children with reading."
"This program is amazing! My child went from 40th % to 90th % in six months. There was a wait list before we were assigned tutor and I recommend following up with them until you are placed. We did the Colorado College campus and my child was matched with a college student for the program. It was a comittment to show up twice a week but the results and confidence boost for my 2nd grader were worth it. Now a year later she is still in the 90th % or higher."
