Does
your child want some extra reading
practice?
Let
your elementary-school-age child team up with a
student member of the National Honor Society.
This low-stress environment is perfect for
those who want some reading-aloud practice with a
friendly ear: children may respond to criticism
from other students better than they would from
parents or teachers.
These
sessions are by appointment only, after school
hours or on Saturdays.
Call
248-887-2218 (option 4) for more information or to
schedule an appointment.
