HEAR FROM OUR COMMUNITY
"We've been using In Tandem for a few years and we are seeing a huge difference in our scores! We now have students who are testing out of needing phonics and phonemic awareness lessons as an intervention. From day to day, we are seeing the follow through is evident from the reading intervention classroom to the classroom! We love In Tandem."
