"Thank you - Need for Reading"

12th October 2004

To whom it may concern

I would like to personally thank Howard & Ursula Bruce for the peace of mind that I now feel knowing that my son can go to high school next year with his reading and literacy skills up to date.

My son now enjoys reading and finds it fun as he never was interested and I suspect it was too difficult but now I see him sitting quietly concentrating and laughing at a funny novel which is a good change from the play station activities.

We were looking at private tuition / coaching to upgrade his skills which would have been a slow, tedious and somewhat resistant chore by Nick, not to mention too expensive and the Need for Reading program has been a very satisfying option.

Nick was extremely motivated as the tuition was private, in his room, one on one, encouraging and interactive. The results were noticeable straight away.

I used the reward system but I know he enjoyed the educational program regardless and would even ask if he could do it before school in the morning !

I would highly recommend this effective tuition to any parent who felt that their child had somewhat slipped through the system and knew that there was a struggle no matter how subtle or supposedly insignificant by their teacher.

It is important to trust your instincts and know that their skills are ready for the challenges of high school.
