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.

Read Right has done so much for me. I struggled with reading until high school, when Read Right tutors started working with me. They helped me become a much better reader and I was so grateful. When I started having my own children, I didn't want them to struggle the way I did, so I decided to follow Read Right founder Dr. Dee Tadlock's book, Read Right! Coaching Your Child to Excellence in Reading (New York: McGraw-Hill, 2005), for their reading development. Wow!! What a difference!! My son started reading at age 5, before he started kindergarten! A year later, he is reading second grade books. We're following her instructions for our 3-year-old and he's catching on. Read Right is life changing.
