My 7 year old daughter has struggled with reading for a while. We did Hooked on Phonics...didn't help. We did Reading Eggs...no help. Basically I bought any and every program that would help her gain the confidence to read. Then I found Ello! Instantly she was excited to read. She loves that it has interactive help. I almost cried when she told me "this gives me confidence!" We are so grateful we found this program and I highly recommend it for anyone who is trying to teach their child to read.
