Great Results!!

My son's first grade teacher was concerned he had ADHD, but I didn't want to put him on medicine, so I waited. I was able to volunteer during his second grade year and what I saw brought me to tears. He could hardly stay in his seat, let alone listen and learn. We had him tested and he was placed on the appropriate medication, but we still had a problem. Christopher was struggling in school because he missed valuable time not being able to focus on schoolwork. We tried a few well known, expensive programs and also some one-on-one tutoring. By the end of second grade he was reading at the first semester second grade reading level. Then I heard about a new program on 99.5. It was about LearningRx. Christopher became one of their first students. By the end of 6 months, his reading had jumped five reading levels! I was thrilled and amazed. My son loved reading!

He is now sixteen years old and in 10th grade. He still reads well above his grade level. Last time he was tested, he was reading at college level! He can read the Bible and actually pronounce every word. He takes a lot of joy out correcting me when I mispronounce difficult words and I couldn't be happier about it! I recommend LearningRx to everyone I meet that has a need they can fill and I am proud to recommend it to you!

Every parent's dream is to see their child succeed, but it's even more fun to see them enjoy it too!
