True Success: Melissa, 12 Years Old

When Melissa first came to LearningRx, her reading was extremely poor andher ability to sound out words was almost unheard of! After years of workingwith her, helping her with homework, and helping her to complete assignments,I knew something had to be done.

Our family time became zero due to lengthy nights of homework and studyingfor tests. Homework took her around three hours each night–withmy assistance! We had tried a private tutor, after-school programs providedby the school, and lots of praying, but nothing seemed to work. She basicallygot through second through fifth grade by memorizing long enough to taketests…then the information was gone.

My husband and I decided to try LearningRx for a couple of reasons. One,we had done all we knew to do. Two, Melissa would be starting middle school,and three; it was like nothing we had ever seen. Our reaction was, “Whynot?”

Thank goodness we did! Melissa’s reading has improved so much andjust as importantly, she now has the skills to decode words she doesn’tknow! She has the confidence that wasn’t there before. She no longercalls herself “dumb” or “stupid” but gets ontome when I want to help her along. She actually does her homework in herroom—not the dinner table—then brings it to me to check. Iam amazed at the improvements the program has made in her! Thanks againto LearningRx. We actually eat dinner as a family again!!
