I can’t believe that I am almost 50 years old and I’ve never known any of this. I didn’t even know what a phoneme was until I looked it up in the dictionary.

When I started volunteering at the literacy program, I thought to myself, “This is something that I can do because I read really well.” Well, it didn’t take me long to figure out that doing and teaching are completely different.

Now I understand what the struggling kids are dealing with. I had my doubts at the beginning whether or not I could teach this way, but I’m getting more confident. I can’t tell you how impressed I am by your system.
