It is awesome!" --Principal, R. Lewis, Sipley Elementary, Woodridge, Illinois To order Keys to Reading Success and get help for your child NOW: http://www.keystoreadingsuccess.com/ECommerce/IdentifyPurchaser.aspx "Our junior high school went from 2/3 of the students below state level on state assessment tests to 2/3 of the students above state level within eight months." --Principal, Cook County, Illinois "My high school son was getting D's and F's, but after a reading diagnosis and learning style assessment from National Reading Diagnostics Institute and receiving instruction in study skills and memory skills in his learning style, he is now getting A's. National Reading Diagnostics Institute also helped him on his SAT's and ACT's."--M.O., Parent, Naperville, Illinois From the Iowa "Gazette," Cedar Rapids, Iowa: "Author Ricki Linksman has plenty of tips for parents who want to be sure their kids love to read, and can read well. Her book, "Your Child Can Be a Great Reader" argues that parents should supplement school education with home tutoring in reading, and she offers lesson plans to that end." (January 3, 1999) From the "Abilene Reporter-News," Abilene, Texas: "This step-by-step guide is designed to help children overcome every kind of reading problem and get back up to grade level or beyond. It is filled with short, fun activities to do at home and provides pointers to boost self-esteem and motivation." (Jan. 24, 1999) From "Woman News," New York, New York: "There is a way to learn anything you want rapidly and successfully. The technique can be applied to any sort of learning in any field you choose. Each of us has a superlink--the easiest method for us to fully learn information....Once you've found your superlink, you can use it to learn in ways that are easy, effortless, and automatic." From How to Learn Anything Quickly, by Ricki Linksman--as published in an article in New York's "Woman News" called, "Mind Power: Smarten Up! Tap into Your Brain's Superlink--Learning Becomes Easy, Effortless, and Automatic," April 1998 edition From "L.A. Parent" and "San Diego Parent," California: "All children in California will be reading at grade level or above by the end of third grade." With this promise, California state leaders have made reading instruction in the early grades (K through 3) a top priority in the public schools. So while the politicians are trying to do their part, how can parents help their little readers measure up? According to Ricki Linksman, author of Your Child Can Be a Great Reader, parents should first figure out their child's learning style. "Research shows that each of us receives information in different ways," Linksman explains. "Visual learners learn better through their eyes, auditory through their ears, tactile learners by touching, and kinesthetic learners by moving around."--from an article in the "L.A. Times" and "San Diego Times," called "What is Your Child's Reading Style? If You Know How Your Child Reads You Can Help Him/Her Learn," by Judy Molland, March 1999 Who Have We Helped?
