As an educator, I am confident
that parents would find this program a valuable tool in assisting the
educational development of their child.

It is widely recognized that
parental involvement is a key determinant of a child's cognitive development.
Often times, parents cannot get involved in the remedial education of their
children because they themselves have difficulty with the material that their
children are struggling to master. Through accessible examples and ample
practice material, the MINDsprinting math and reading curricula
provide a unique opportunity for parents and children to learn together. The
shared learning experience in turn fosters a relationship between the child,
the parent, and the learning process, which builds the confidence and
motivation necessary for success and lifelong learning. In addition, the shared
learning experience equips parents to be an advocate for their children with
teachers because they can track their children's progress and communicate that
progress more effectively. In short, the MINDsprinting math and
reading curricula provide a unique opportunity to build the foundation for
cognitive/motivational structures that will last a lifetime.

The program encourages
parental involvement, a cornerstone of academic progress. And for students and
parents alike, it is a convenient, self-motivating program built on a balanced
approach of assessment with instruction, step-by-step practice to achieve
mastery of numeracy and literary skills.

MINDsprinting proved invaluable in helping our daughter become a confident math student.
She now excels at math ( her favorite subject) and has done extremely well in her entrance exams for secondary school here in the UK. Mindsprinting has take the fear out of math by easing students into each new math discipline without overwhelming them. Learning math became effortless.
Thank you so much, you have helped us get her there. I would gladly pay

I forwarded this email to several of my friends and family members whom have children in school. I used your program during the summer for my 7 year old daughter. She is now doing very well in Reading. I appreciate you finding away to make this even more affordable. I am a single mother and I could not afford to send her to a tutor outside of what her school provides. This is really a great help. The only cost I incurred was for the paper to print off her assignments. She thoroughly enjoyed the lessons. I hope one day you will be able to go interactive; otherwise, thank you so much for this program. Please let me know when the new math program starts. Thanks again.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the developers of this site. My daughter was struggling in math, and my husband and I were looking for anything which would help her build her skills and confidence. We came across MINDsprinting in a newsletter from my husband's place of employment. We took a look at the features of the site, and decided to enroll her. After she completed the assessment test, and then the first unit of the math which was suggested, I noticed she was starting to improve in the completion of timed math quizes at school. As she continued in the lessons her math abilities improved.
We hope her success so far will be retained when the site comes back up as I use the transcript as proof to her of her success

I discovered MINDsprinting last year when my 7-year old was struggling with reading. The worksheets were similar to what she was doing at school - but the additional repetition, and reinforcement that she received from MINDsprinting gave her the tools she needed to gain confidence. I also like how parent involvement is encouraged. This year we have enrolled her in the Math program and she is thriving beautifully! She can work at her own pace, there are additional pages available for extra practice and the layout/explanations are easy for her to understand the concepts being taught - sometimes better than what the teacher at school explains. I have since enrolled my Kindergarten and Preschool children to begin the programs to supplement their work at school. MINDsprinting has given my children a huge amount of confidence and satisfaction regarding reading and math. The program works great. They don't see that learning is a chore -- they enjoy it. I see this in all the children. Thanks for providing a tremendously rewarding tool for students - and parents.

I just wanted to tell you that your program is similar to the programs that are offered on television. In particular Kumon. I was very pleased with your program and was extremely happy to read that your program is going to be offered for free. My son has some issues with school and I definitley will be using this free program for him.

I searched the web far and wide to find a home study program for my daughter and was very pleased that after signing up and using the first materials that what you promised was true. The style of teaching accelerated my daughter's achievements.

Bless you ALL, Because I just happened to stumble across this web site and
thought wow this is neat BUT I thought it would cost too much for me to be
a part of ! I know it said free but I kept waiting and thinking it was more to it.
Thanks for your prompt email service.

I just want to say thank you for the math and reading with the state standards to help students to see what they need to improve on and to help them to prepare for the CRCT test at home and in class, and for free.

I just started utilizing your site and I LOVE it!!
- Mrs. Chambers
Unbelievable, Technical support that works!!!! Great Job on such great site!!! Ya'll rock!!! Thank You so much for the fast reply.
- Angie Wheeler
Good day! I just wanted to say thank you for the great tutoring service that you generously offer for free.
I signed up in MindSprinting several months ago for my son who is now in his first grade. I used to enrol him in Enopi ( a Kumon counterpart here in the Philippines) but when I read about your program in PRWeb,I gave it a try and wow, I am so happy and very satisfied with your free tutoring service.
Now, I do not need to spend for my son's enrichment program and it is indeed a big help for our family budget.
Again, thank you for your generosity. More power.
- Alvin Criss
Thank you. I very much appreciate that MINDsprinting has made such an excellent tool available to us free of charge. I work with students many of whom perform below grade level and need a tutorial program that is both individualized and systematic. I am grateful to have found your curriculum.
- N. Bondar
I LOVE your site!! I am using it with so many of my students. It is helping to provide the individual attention each student needs. Thank you SO much!
- April Arnett
It is quite remarkable that you are able to offer this product for free, we have a small Centre and business is strong but
our only regret is that tutoring is so expensive that it excludes so many who need it. I wish there was a way we could offer
free or low-priced tutoring, while still making a small profit for our own family. I have a lot of respect for what you have
done and the quality of the material on your siteWe are a small Learning Centre run by my husband and myself who are both certified teachers.

Thanks so much!! You guys and your website are Fantastic!

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I really like mindsprinting for both math and reading for my homeschooler. So keep up the excellent work.
-Kathy Siebert.
Hi, Love your site.
-Tiffany Lampe.
Thank you so much for your help on this. I love the program It means a lot to us.

I cannot thank you enough for offering this service. Even though I am very strong in Math, I could not find a way to help my daughter who has struggled immensely with it for her first 3 years of school-- to the point of panic attacks. We tried every homeschool program/modifications with more hands on, etc. We could not afford a tutor, until I found your website offering help for free. She has only done 2 weeks worth of lessons, but with full understanding and no errors. Mindsprinting is changing the way she feels about math in general. She actually said to me, "I think I might like to do math from now on." There are no words to express what it feels like to see your child succeed when she has felt like a failure for so long. I feel God led me to your website as an answer to many prayers. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
-Christine swanson.
Thank You ! My child has been in public school ever since k . She has always had trouble in math. This year the gov. told us that her school failed in English and, Math. Amy took the placement test and she has missed understanding math ever since the second grade. I always tried to help her, we have done math till 12:00 am. With mindsprinting.com I now know how to help her! Amy was made fun at public school so I decided to homeschool her and now we know what we need to work on. Thank You , so much for being there, I think she will reach her full potential now. The teachers have always said she was smart enough to be what ever she wants to be, and she wants to be a Vet. and make video games. Thank you.

I am a frustrated home school parent because my province doesn't support home school, but that all changed when I stumbled upon your website. MINDsprinting is so wonderful! It's easy to navigate, thorough, concise, self explanatory, vivid and very generous. Not only does it create an enthusiastic student but also an enthusiastic parent!
Great Work!
-Elisha Novack.
Hello!
I would like to share how I am so impressed with your math and reading programs. My children have greatly improved their skills in these areas since starting Mindsprinting this school year. Because of that, I am very interested in knowing if additional curriculum areas will be added to this wonderful program in the future. Thank you in advance for your reply!
-Karen Paulson.
I LOVE your site!! I am using it with so many of my students. It is helping to provide the individual attention each student needs. Thank you SO much!
-April Arnett.
Thank every one who established this program. I am on the path of completing my GED and this program perfect. Please know because of this program you are opening doors and improving the life of so many. I have also started my three year old . He is testing on a kindergarden level and I am certain we will be well within first grade curriculm by his next birthday. I do not know how to explain how much we love this program. Three billion thanks! Kudos!
-Lia.
Thank you for caring. It means so much to us. This is one of the few programs that my 6 and 4 year old grandsons can work in that allows them to advance at their own pace and that we can afford. It allows them to work on paper so they can see their work and it lets me fill in gaps. Thank you again . MINDsprinting is a godsend for us.
