Reading with TLC

Testimonials

“My kindergarteners love the letter/word work of TLC! They adore the Lively Letters music and songs! With sparkling eyes and a heart bursting with pride, Alexander states, ‘That’s the fire breathing dragon!’ Ali hardly ever speaks, but now he knows almost all his letters and sounds! He can express himself through his kindergarten writing. Polly can now say ‘three’ instead of ‘free.’ Ashley says the sound when she sees or writes most letters, and it is fantastic! Pedro can say ‘rabbit’ instead of ‘wabbit.’ His mom is thrilled. Ben cried when the substitute did not play the ‘i’ song. I have been teaching for eighteen years. I have had phone conversations with you, and have felt the sincerity of what you wish to bring to primary students. Thank you.”

“As a student who had reading difficulties, I wish this program had been around for me. I truly feel this program makes a difference for a VARIETY of learning styles.”
Carleen ~ educator in Massachusetts
“Recently I was introduced to this program and it has changed my perception of how to teach reading. I have only used this for two months and my students are making HUGE strides in that time.”
Morgan ~ Title One paraprofessional
“My students are always asking, ‘What letter friend do we get to learn today?’ or ‘When will we learn a new letter?’ The program is easy to use – telling stories and giving cues. I especially like the Sight Words piece, which I used to struggle with because it was so boring.”
Jodi ~ teacher
