Reading with Phonics: The Agent of Positive Change

Here is just some of the feedback that has been received:

As the Learning Support teacher I have observed our students eagerly participating in the reading program on a daily basis, indeed many students have asked for additional sessions with their tutors. Students reading comprehension and decoding skills are improving and this has been noted in the classrooms as well.

This program is one of the best and the tutors and administrators of Bright Sky are of the highest caliber.

LR, Learning Support Teacher

My co-workers continue to rave on and on about the improvements they have seen as a result of using the Smart Way Program.  As I have only been a teacher for 4 years and some of my co-workers have been in it for 20+ years, it is fantastic to hear such positive feedback from them.  They truly are excited that our kids are reading.  Our kids are slow, very slow, and even learning the sounds the letters make is progress that to us is very exciting.  We just wish for basic survival reading skills and to see some of them accomplish that, or even begin to get close to that, is really neat.  Thanks for everything!

HR, Special Education Teacher

Great progress was achieved as demonstrated by observations, personal interactions, reviews and test results. But more importantly, which tests do not and can not measure, is the confidence and willingness on the part of these students to read and want to read.

BL, Program Supervisor

I observed a remarkable improvement in the children's ability to read and understand basic language. I see we are making a difference.

We would definitely want this tutoring as a permanent part of our curriculum.

DR, Alternative Education School Director

The class made me smarter with my reading and spelling. I think it's good for all students. It's fun learning when you are there.

HR, Student (age 15)

The teachers and students that I observed were happy with the curriculum, the kids were engaged and I really loved the foundational reading skills I saw being reinforced.

GL, After-School Program Administrator

The gains these students have made are also reflected on the amount of time they remain on task during class.

MR-G, English Language Learner Teacher

I cannot say enough about this program. I certainly hope that it will be available next year as it is apparent that our students desperately need it and are reaping the benefits of it.

CC, Learning Support Teacher

The rewards of Bright Sky are evident not only by the increase of reading and comprehension for the students, but also in their personal pride, accomplishments and visually noted increase in self-esteem.

BH, Classroom Supervisor

Smart Way has helped me because I have a lot more confidence and am not embarrassed to read in front of the class. It has helped me to read, understand and pronounce words and syllables way better than before.

JL, Student (age 14)

I liked it. It taught me lots of stuff so I can spell and read better. It made learning fun and now I can read way better.

EB, Student (age 7)

Students scored more than ten points higher on their tests. I was so happy when I received the results and I know that Smart Way played an important role.

I, personally, noticed a huge improvement in her reading and her speech.

JD, Parent

My students are more confident when reading orally or silently. They have told me that this program has been a great help to them as they have enhanced their vocabulary, comprehension and spelling skills.

While there are many companies that offer solutions to our illiteracy problems, only Bright Sky Learning delivers with a great product.

KH, Learning Center Director

I firmly believe that anyone who works with students that are struggling academically, especially the at-risk student population, should contact Bright Sky Learning.
