How they should teach in school
As the parent of a child with special needs, I have spent a long time looking for something that would actually help him learn to read. His school has focused more on memorizing words than understanding how reading works, and that approach has not been effective for him.
Reading.com has given him the chance to learn reading in a way that makes sense. Instead of relying on memory, he is building the skills needed to read with understanding. It has been encouraging to see his confidence grow as he starts to figure words out on his own.
Every child learns differently, but this has been a positive experience for our family.

Love, love, love!!
We seriously loved everything about this! We started with this app when my son was four, and we finished all 99 lessons over the course of about a year. By the end, my five year old was a READER! Before he even started kindergarten, he was able to read full picture books with relative ease! My only complaint is that I wish there were more lessons that began removing some of the supports so that the kids could become accustomed to reading without them (lines above long vowels, arch connecting digraphs, etc.) Great program that I highly recommend as both a parent and an elementary school teacher!

Amazing!
My (just turned) 5 year old used this and is now reading at a 2nd + grade reading level before even stepping foot in kindergarten! Will be using for our son and any future babies. My nearly 2 year old son even knows some
of the letter sounds because of the phonics song! We LOVED this app.

Great!
My 6 year old struggled to read for years and as soon as she started the app she began to read well and enjoy it too
Decent. Glitches.
The app is fine but there are glitches. After reaching some levels, you can’t even scratch out the page to reveal the picture.
