A fifth grader started LDHope in May of last year. He had a low reading level and disliked both reading and writing. His mother said he rarely read on his own and got upset every time he had to write.
After 5 months on the program he was ready to quit. We encouraged him to stay on for 2 more months. According to his mom, in those last two months he transformed almost overnight. During one of the check-in telephone calls he announced loudly to me that he had read a whole book the day before. It was a large book too. He also proceeded to tell me the whole story from memory, something he was unable to do in the beginning. Today he is reading and writing with success.
