Because reading is so important, I wanted to make sure that my daughter started out reading right. Thank you so much—in four months’ time, she went from knowing nothing to reading sentences—and enjoying reading—she thinks reading is fun! I recommend True North Reading: The Complete Mastery Reading & Spelling Program to anyone who wants to start his or her child out right.

— Beth, elementary school counselor and mom to a five-year-old daughter

I was a speech-language pathologist before homeschooling my kids (where I specialized in pediatrics) and I love the multisensory approach of your program. The ideas and suggestions for activities in between lessons are exactly what I would have asked parents of my clients do try to when I was in practice as a SLP! It is truly the best program to teach reading that I have come across in my 10+ years of homeschooling.

— J. Peterson

I started out with my four-year-old daughter with True North Reading: The Complete Mastery Reading & Spelling program—and in under six months, she tested at a grade 2.5 level of reading! Amazing!

— Mom to Odessa, in Kalamazoo, Michigan

After just his first year in school, my son didn’t want to read, and his teacher said that he needed help. Now—just two months later—Tristan is happy and smiling and reading words, and he can figure new words out easily. I’ve already told my friends about this program, because it changed our whole outlook on reading for us.

— Michelle, mom to Tristan, age 6
