"I wanted to thank you again for the significant reading support you gave Timothy this past fall semester. You are a phenomenally gifted reading tutor, Kathy. Your demeanor was inviting to Timothy, you gave him a true sense of his reading strengths...I very much appreciated your phone updates, your affirmations of our..efforts, as well as witnessing your passion for your work...I am certain that Timothy greatly benefited from his work with you and will continue to do so. "

"His teacher gave us very good news last week.... normally Sam is required to only practice spelling 5 words out of 15 (which is what the rest of the class has). Last week she forgot to tell Sam to stop during the spelling test and he kept right on going. He earned 14/15 correct! And we hadn't practiced any of the other 10 words."

"Thank you so much for your work with John. He has so enjoyed coming to do lessons with you. You have unlocked the mystery of the written word for him. Now he is free to become the reader he has always wanted to be but has been locked inside him"
