Reading Comprehension Strategies Really Work!

“My son has really improved his reading, writing, and study skills. I was skeptical at first to even try the program because we’ve tried so many before this, but I just couldn’t give up on my son.  When we started Bonnie Terry’s Reading & Writing Program comprehension and writing was so difficult for him. Then we watched the video lessons and did the daily 20 minutes of work. It really made a difference.

He is a freshman in high school now, and finally reading & writing quite well. Bonnie, I want to thank you again for everything you have done to help us. I recommend your reading help system to all my friends. This is the best dyslexia program we’ve used…and we’ve tried a lot of different programs. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
