“I just wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for Lindsey [Blackburn]. Since starting her work with Lindsey and Lexercise [my child] has made enormous gains in her ability to read, spell, handwriting, organization, and approach to words. It’s been amazing from a purely academic standpoint.

However what I am the most thankful for is Lindsey’s approach to [my child]. She just “gets” her and is so able to inspire and motivate [my child] to keep  doing the hard stuff and reading has been so hard for her. She hated it. Lindsey is a gifted, talented educator and we feel so lucky to have found her.

… She says her favorite school subject is reading. That made me cry… Thanks for all the hard work you all do at Lexercise it makes such a difference.”

“My son worked throughout the years with multiple tutors before we found the Lexercise program. The key reasons that encouraged us to try this program were the flexibility in schedule, the daily reinforcement through the online games and the guarantee that he would improve one grade level in two months or his third month was free. My son had limited success with tutors in the past and was 4 years behind grade level in reading when he began working with Tori. Within a month, I noticed he was more confident and was not complaining about school reading assignments. His teachers commented that he would now volunteer to read aloud in class.

He is typically anxious at the end of the school year when he takes the end of year testing… The icing on the cake for me happened when I asked him how his reading and spelling testing went and he said, ‘It went pretty well. Tori has helped me a lot.’ He went on to tell me in his own words how her methodology had translated into success in a concrete way.

We are now integrating a targeted writing piece into his work with Tori. It is obvious to both my son and I that she has the background and experience to help. We feel lucky to have found Lexercise.”
