I appreciated the thoroughness of the Building Fact Fluency webinar. The webinar provided great information regarding breaking down fluency into different stages of understanding. I will definitely attend another webinar in the future!

Katie worked wonderfully with our kids, giving us a full evaluation of where they were. Our kids loved their time with her. She had inventive/engaging methods for teaching that made sense and that our kids really responded to. We were very happy with our results!
