ELL ELL Data

At Read Right, we know our reading program works to improve the reading skills of English Language Learners. We know that Read Right gives ELL students the English reading help that they need to feel confident and to be successful and productive. We have the Data to prove Read Right works!

English Language Learners Data Middle School

Mean Grade Equivalency (GE)

Average hours of Read Right tutoring:41

Mean Normal Curve Equivalency (NCE)

A mean NCE Gain Score of 0.0 means the students held their own in the norming population, neither falling further behind nor closing the achievement gap. Thus low gain scores are statistically meaningful.

Researchers generally regard NCE gain scores between 1.9 and 3.2 to be indicative of an effective program.

I didn't really think I had a reading problem. I've always been really good with school. My mom wanted me to try Read Right just to see what it might do. I was kind of surprised. They start out with easy text and, the harder it got, the more I struggled. I ran sentences together and didn't really know what to do with punctuation. Sometimes I couldn't even tell the tutor what I'd just read. It was messed up. In just two and half months my tutor helped me fix it. Now I read great. I know I'll be ready for high school.
