This program helped my son tremendously, as he was not an avid reader. reading was way below grade level but with the help of this program my son, who is 8-years old, is now able to read and is seeking to assist other children to read.

The speakers were great, I enjoyed the topics and the stories. The stories brought life to the information and also gave a better understanding of how to teach boys. Well done!!

I thought the topic of the workshop was quite relevant as often as teachers we do not understand or are able to adequately reach our boys the way we would like to, thus having a forum that allows us to gain new ways and insights is beneficial
