Testimonials

“Becky Aldred is the rare person who made my child feel good about reading and great about himself. He has been seeing “Miss Becky” once a week for the past 6 months and his reading scores on the MAPS test just jumped 30 points—well beyond what was expected. His teachers were floored and he was more than jazzed. Becky is systematic, practical, goal-oriented, and knowledgeable, but she is also incredibly warm and loving. My child sits there for over an hour and leaves smiling each time. Wow!”

“Becky Aldred’s work with our son has been nothing short of remarkable. Not only has she developed an incredible personal working rapport with our son but she has been able to get him to work diligently on a daily basis. Their work together has produced tangible ever growing positive results.”

“As a former elementary teacher I have never met anyone more skilled at teaching children to read and write than Becky Aldred. Her approach is multifaceted and based on years of experience, sound educational research and seasoned intuition. In addition, Becky is simply a lovely, energetic, passionate person with a gift for connecting with children. My husband and I are astounded by the difference in our son’s reading and writing abilities in the less than 6 months that he has been working with Becky. Or only regret is not having started sooner!”

“My daughter was struggling and frustrated with reading. She advanced 2 reading levels in one year using Orton Gillingham instruction with Ms. Becky. She now loves to read!”

“Mrs. Becky, as we lovingly call her, is by far the best reading tutor that my son has ever had. She brings such a level of professionalism to her task of educating children. Mrs. Becky spends time when she first meets your child really getting to know them and making them feel at home. Then she begins the daunting task of assessing what your child really needs to make them successful. After this the real work begins, she works week after week building skill upon skill steadily making your child a more successful reader and speller. We did sessions in person with Mrs. Becky from second to third grade then we moved and continued with her via Skype as we did not want to lose all the wonderful progress we had made. I feel so confident in recommending Mrs. Becky and cannot dream of anyone better suited to fit any child’s reading needs. She is truly a blessing to our family, and I know if you are lucky enough to find her, she will do the same for you.”

“When we started tutoring with Ms. Becky both our son and daughter were struggling with reading, due in large part to being dyslexic. Through her insights, knowledge and patience they have gained tremendous skill and confidence in their reading. My son, now in 7th grade, is able to read consistent with his peers, and my daughter, now in 5th grade has become an enthusiastic pleasure reader. We couldn’t be happier with the process and the results!”

“Mrs. Becky has been a wonderful help to my son. He has made such progress over the last year working with her. I would recommend her to any family with a child who needs help with reading at any level!!”
