Michelle mentioned them in my post about Cody's reading problems a few days ago and I've been checking them out. Has anyone else had any experience with them???

I think that we need help with Cody and obviously, we aren't going to get it from the school system. This looks like it'll run around $100/month, which is pretty steep, but I'm thinking we can probably cover it through our Flexplan (hope so!) They have a free "assessment" and I'm thinking about just checking it out to see what it's all about.
Other than that, does anyone have any suggestions for teaching a child to read?? I just don't know how to do it. We have those little early reader books that are made for Pre-K kids and that's a struggle for him. There's only 3 to 4 words per page and they usually rhyme. He just "doesn't get it" and I don't know what else to do.

But its a lot cheaper than a lot of the other programs like Sylvan.....unless its different in the US, you have to sign up for a year, and it even goes during the summer.....
