Effectiveness
In a conclusive two-year study, ESL ReadingSmart was statistically proven to raise students’ reading and language scores.
Specifically, students in the study who completed more than ten ESL ReadingSmart lessons in a school year showed significant increases in SAT
9/10 reading and language scores.

| “The students enjoy working in the program. I like the program for its integration of reading, writing, listening,
and speaking around thematic units in the Jump Start section. I also like the variety of levels available to the students, as it
allows increased differentiation. The spiraling sequence of the detailed lesson plans is another advantage.” |

available, I can use the program myself to print off materials to hand out to students. The program is very versatile." |
