Testimonials
In my nine years of working at Reading Town, I had the opportunity to work with many, many bright young people. Taking full advantage of the high-quality educational material provided, I was able to substantially advance their educational odysseys. There were numerous moments that brought the satisfaction of watching a student suddenly come to an important realization. And there was also the additional satisfaction that came from observing the long-term progress of some of my more regular students. And I was not alone in this; all of the teachers I got to know at Reading Town seemed to enjoy the same success that results from genuine effort to help young people learn.

Reading Town provided me with a sophisticated new way of learning since elementary school. While covering the basics, I was exposed to literary works that are more elevated and eye-opening which pushed me to become a more complex writer from a young age. Thanks to Reading town, my transitions from elementary school to high school, and from grade 10 to IB were less difficult due to my pre-exposure to advanced forms of grammar, vocabulary and essay writing. My teachers were immensely supportive and guided me through the IB diploma English program, allowing me to reach my goal of being accepted into my dream university.

I am very satisfied with my experience at Reading Town. My son has been attending here for a year, and he has improved drastically. I really like the system that guides children through step by step. Other tutoring schools often give children homework that is beyond their level and intimidates them, making them less willing to study. Reading Town gives children suitable homework is just the right amount instead of excessive. It trains their memory and builds a really strong foundation for further learning. Reading Town has become my son’s favorite place to go to.

Reading Town has been such a monumental addition to our children’s learning. Their teaching strategies for both our kids have aided in their abilities to solve advanced mathematical problems and critique novels so that they are comprehending their reading tasks more confidently. It has prepared them well also for their NAPLAN exams, and with the additional computer skills that RT provides, it has increased their confidence with their academic work at school.
We have been very happy with our children’s progress so far at RT, and how well they have been equipped with the skills and knowledge required for school. We highly recommend the programs that RT has to offer for any parent wanting to further enrich their children’s learning. Maria & Claro

My son has been going to this reading town since they opened up about 6 months ago. Within those months, my son's reading level jumped from level D to level I (5 school levels). His teacher and I are so happy with the results. My son continues to go as of now he loves it he likes his tutors and everyone there and as do I. You can really tell how dedicated everyone is the minute you walk through their doors. I highly recommend this amazing place to all my family and friends.
