The Heartbreak of English

...and a logical way out!

The statistics are staggering.

According the Nation's Report Card and the National Reading Panel, only 32% of 4th-grade students read at grade level. In 8th grade, only 31% of students read at grade level.

National Institute of Health studies show that systematic, explicit teaching, as found in the Logic of English, changes brain patterns and dramatically improves reading scores.
