HOW TO IMPROVE THEIR READING SKILLS

Peer Teaching, called Paired Practice in this program, has proven successful in years of empirical study and research. It is now an integral part of the Remedial Reading Classroom. Students interacting and teaching each other accelerates success. Speed, accuracy and retention are all improved.
