Independent Research

MindPlay Virtual Reading Coach (MVRC) is built on the foundation of MindPlay’s successful earlier programs.

  • The reading specialist, built into the program and working one-on-one with each student from My Reading Coach™
  • The eye tracking, testing, and fluency building from FLRT® – a fluent reading trainer
  • The complete online reading diagnostic tool that is RAPS® 360 and
  • The speech pathologists that work one-on-one with students from MindPlay’s Phonemic Awareness

Each of these products has been improved, enhanced, and added together to create MindPlay Virtual Reading Coach, the complete reading instruction and reading remediation solution.
