I have noticed in my years of teaching the increased problem that students have with reading comprehension. We all want our children to be strong readers, however, we don't all learn it or take interest in it the same way. My course will help students grow from where they are individually and develop the actual skills to understand what they have read and how to build an enjoyment for reading. I have seen students that I teach go from hating reading to asking their parents for BOOKS as gifts! I would love to expand my reach and help even more students grow and improve in reading!Reviews
