There is no amount of money I could pay
that would compensate you for this program’s worth

At the beginning of the school year, my son (who had repeated first grade twice) was scoring at the 1st grade 7th month in reading, with an instructional level at Kindergarten 6 months. His self-esteem was at an all-time low, his frustration level was at an all-time high, and he hated school. Showing him a page of print would immediately send him into a panic.

He was tested for dyslexia and was found to have a moderate-to-severe form of it, along with a very high IQ. There were absolutely no resources for him in our entire area. I read everything I could get my hands on about dyslexia. I found the Barton System online and decided, after reading other glowing reports from parents, that this program could work.

I could tell right away during Level 1 that his phonemic awareness skills were very poor. However, the way the Barton System presented dissecting words and hearing sounds began to ring bells for him immediately.

I began to go to his school daily to tutor him in place of his Spanish class. It was obvious he was making strides. He never balks at reading anymore.

School has been in session for 18 weeks. His reading level was reassessed this past week. He is now at the 2nd grade 9th month level. His instructional reading level went from K-6 to 3.1. For the first time ever, he is no longer in the “below average” range. In fact, he is at the 73rd percentile. His spelling scores are also outstanding.

The biggest change of all is in his self-esteem. He is like a different child.

I realize that Barton Reading is a business, and that I paid for the materials, but I still think that you deserve a world of thanks. My child’s entire future will forever be positively impacted by this program! There is no amount of money I could pay that would adequately compensate you for this program’s worth. My son’s dyslexia, which had been a huge problem in his life, is being very successfully and rather easily remediated.
