Intervention Programs

My students are enjoying this program so far! It's really helping them to read better!

Although I cannot speak for the rest of my coworkers, I love Read Live. I have seen a big leap in how my students read. Their scores are going up and even improved on their state testing. I have used Read Naturally in the past and have loved how quickly, with daily practice, my students improved.

I have used Read Live for many years now. It is an outstanding program for building fluency! The stories are engaging — any many times I have said of a tidbit of information……I learned that in a Read Live story! When the students buy into the program the results are amazing!

I work with academic intervention teachers to serve the foster youth students in our school district. Since last year, Read Naturally has been a valuable resource to improve and strengthen their reading skills. I love how the students can practice keywords while working on comprehension and sentence writing. It has become my first choice for reading sessions.

I'm a new teacher and I just started using One Minute Reader and I love it so far. I do hot and cold reads for my students. I'm a fist year special education teacher. I'm interested to explore more of what this program has to offer. After exploring your website, it seems like you guys have a lot of good progress monitoring tools and data tracking. One of the data tracking pages I got from your site was to do the hot and cold reads, it's been a good help with keeping my students engaged in their progress and areas to grow in.

I have been using Read Naturally for three years now. My students love it and I have seen great improvement in them. It is a win, win for everybody!

I tutored a student with reading disabilities and she was 3 years below her reading grade level. She did not like the hands-on, multisensory methods of other research-based reading programs, so I introduced her to Read Naturally's online reading program. Since she loves technology, I thought this would be a good fit. She not only liked the online learning and engaging lessons of Read Naturally, she LOVED it! In 6 months, she increased her reading level by two years because she enjoyed interacting with the program so frequently. Her parents were astounded! I highly recommend the online program for students who may not enjoy the structured literacy approach of other programs.

Read Live has been such a great tool to help build the fluency and comprehension of my special learners utilizing high interest texts! I love knowing we are working at their appropriate instructional level based on the placement test and my students love their time on Read Live.

The suite of tools that Read Live offers are so instrumental in supporting students on their journeys to become proficient readers. We couple Word Warm Up Live with Read Live Sequenced Stories to allow students to build their accuracy, fluency, expression, & comprehension abilities while continuously strengthening fluency with decoding at the word level. At my last school site Read Live became an essential part of our strong K-3 Literacy program and the Read Live model we used has now spread to other campuses within that district. I, happily, took Read Live with me to my new district site where we are building our program from the ground up and already seeing success. I encourage all campuses to consider Read Live and its many tools as an element for your reading program. Helpful at all tiers of instruction, Read Live is a tool I won't live without as a reading specialist.

I love to use Read Naturally Live with my students in private practice. We work hard on phonics skills and then use the program to gain more fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. The predictable format has been great for my dyslexic students as well. The students love the high interest stories and really enjoy when they hit their goals.

I have seen such an improvement in my students who have consistently used Read Live. The program is teacher and student friendly. The passages are all very interesting to the students and keeps them coming back for more. I love the data mentor feature and have found it to be accurate for changing a student level.

My 8th grade Reading Itervention class adopted the Read Naturally Live program as a replacement to the mishegoss that HMH created by re-configuring their Read180 software program. I was hesitant at first to use the Read Live program, as rumoors that "it was used years ago" and "it just wasn't a good program". Not knowing if that was true or not, I signed up for the FREE 60 day "test-drive", and was pleasantly surpised at how easy it is the use, and how engaging and focused the material is. My students have been successful using it, constantly growing with each intervention period, and one of my students was actually selected as the Read Naturally's "Star of the Month" for December! Their customer support has been very helpful, and they have additional opportunities via live webinars or tape webinars (which I can view with a busy teaching schedule). The program is highly-affordable, and a great addition to my 8th grade classroom.

Michelle was a huge help in getting us back up and running as we have several new faces since first using Read Live and her level of patience was appreciated. We hope to watch other tutorials to best use the full spectrum of tools available and also connect our teaching staff to help the team support our EL students with language acquisition and comprehension along with fluency/accuracy.

Read Naturally Live is an excellent program for developing reading fluency. I have used it for over 10 years as a station in my support setting. The program provides a visual representation of how practice affects their reading rate. Additionally, the comprehension questions help me identify the specific skills that require direct instruction. I would highly recommend it as part of a robust reading program. Also, the customer service is phenomenal. Christy has been so accommodating and responsive. I am so appreciative of the whole team.

I have used your programs with Special Education students in self-contained classrooms. They were motivated by their progress and enjoyed discussing their stories with others. I have always spoken highly of your programs and recommended the programs to other districts.

We've been using Read Naturally Live for 3 years in our intervention program and have seen amazing growth in our struggling readers. The program is designed to be easily accessable to students and teachers, while having depth and breadth of instruction to keep students challenged as they grow in oral reading and comprehension. Our program has "graduated" many students back to their regular classroom as they reached grade-level fluency. Read Naturally Live is a wonderful tool to have in your intervention tool kit!

Very patent and supportive

My students thrive year after year with this program. I utilize a reward system to keep the motivation and excitement alive. My middle schoolers are seeing their progress and are proud of themselves and even clap for their friends when they achieve goals. If you fire it up before launching it and utilize the training videos for yourself and for your students (as a class), you will love it too! Keep it alive and it'll happen
