"MindPlay's My Reading Coach is, hands-down, the very best reading/literacy, cross-age program we've seen yet. Easy to install and use, full-featured, with everything from assessment and placement testing, phonics and grammar lessons, with bilingual (Spanish/English) and IEP (Special Education/Needs) features, this program will ensure success in struggling readers of all ages."

“We purchased My Reading Coach for our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students who needed accelerated instruction. We soon learned that it was very strong in building fluency for students who could not read enough words per minute. We began with 1 station in August, 2004, and currently have twelve.”

“I believe My Reading Coach works for our first graders and other grades because 1) the children like to be involved with technology; 2) they like to receive individual praise often, and 3) they can progress at their own pace while interacting with a real person on the computer screen.”

“I have also seen special education students struggle and struggle in school, but My Reading Coach really helps them fill in those gaps or maybe teach in a different way that that they have not been exposed to in the past.”

"Special Education students do very well in the program because it is self paced and regulated. It is adaptable to their individual needs. The teacher will help individual students and help them review lessons with the sheets that are provided."

“I learned more about reading. Now I have no problem with reading and I don’t stutter as much anymore. Some other kids need it in my other classes and I feel sorry that they do not get to come with us to use My Reading Coach.”

"Now that I'm in My Reading Coach I can write to my friends all the time. I use to ask people all the time how to write some of the words but now I don't. Now that I have found the coach my wirting has improved 100%. Now that I have found the coach, I have a goal to get my GED. You and I know that it is hard when you don't know how to read and write. You and I know that it makes it hard to find a good job. But thanks to MindPlay I now have a chance to better myself and get my GED. So when I get out I will have that good job."
