“My son’s star reading assessments from the beginning of the year until his most recent this spring he has jumped up 100 points and is out of the “not meeting expectations”! He also went from a student growth percentile of 15 to 88! He was very proud to bring that test home. Your work is showing and he’s beginning to have so much confidence. Thank you so much! “

“Before Great Minds reading at home each day was a struggle and Kendall would get so frustrated and upset. Great Minds has boosted Kendall’s confidence and made reading FUN! Now she asks to read some of the pages when we are reading a story as a family! Kendall absolutely loves her sessions with Marianne.“

“One year ago, he hated books- he wouldn’t read. He got a book for Easter, and we caught him staying up late with a flashlight under the covers!”
