Reading Results that Changed Their Life!

"Great Leaps Tutoring made a world of difference for my son! Before beginning the tutoring, he was three grade levels behind in reading. Within three months, not only has his reading level increased nearly two full grade levels, but his fluency, phonics, and vocabulary have improved. It is helping to build his confidence and speech articulation significantly. I highly recommend Great Leaps Tutoring, they are truly amazing, and words cannot express my gratitude!”

“We got him evaluated… The psychologist said he would probably always need accommodations like someone to dictate and write for him. We’ve been doing Great Leaps for 4 months now and he’s gained I think 2.4 grade levels in reading. It makes homeschooling way easier. It’s allowing him to learn new words without having to drill and kill. I’ve been recommending this to my friends… It’s opened up his world and his life.”

“Asher quite literally changed the course of our son’s life. He was a tutor and a role model, switching struggles and frustrations into challenges, and challenges into proud moments. Catching up on skill and confidence in reading has shifted his relationship to school and all classes. Without this experience, there’s really no telling how much farther behind he would’ve fallen, or how upset with himself he might have become.”

“I cannot begin to thank you enough for taking my reluctant reader, and helping unlock his potential and helping him cultivate a love for reading. Not only did he learn how to read, he learned how to fail with grace and try again the next day. This mama’s heart is eternally grateful. We started this journey feeling hopeless, and we are left at the end hopeful, strong and confident.”

“Y'all are the perfect combination of 'in-person' but also 'at your convenience. I'm thinking '15 minutes a day, but 5 days per week,' okay, that may work, but worst case, it doesn't work. No problem. And sure enough, it worked! We love our tutor, Sonya, so much, it kind of just feels like she's an extension of our family since she's in our home 15 minutes every single day!"

"My 13-year old grandson is really lucky to have Carly Baluarte as his tutor. When she speaks to him, it's always in an upbeat and encouraging tone. She always asks him about his day, or his plans for the weekend to make him feel comfortable. Sometimes teens can be difficult because of the many distractions, but she is extremely patient and understanding. He has made a lot of progress over the past 6 months and we are very happy!"

“I am so happy with the great leaps program, and especially with our tutor Sonya. I am most happy with how much Venitia enjoys her daily classes. Sonya makes it so fun and special for her. It has never been about speed for me, but about daily, consistent learning--it's more of a marathon than a race and for that to be sustainable, it needs to be fun as well as informative. This program achieves that. So yes, I am very happy with the program, and Venitia's progress, and especially with Ms. Sonya!”

“Jammye has become the teacher my daughter every day is very excited to meet and do her reading with. She doesn’t like it when she misses her class. My daughter’s eagerness to read showcases the confidence she is getting and her reading is improving gradually.”
