see a great change in attitude.
They were intimidated by public school and the teachers were sometimes impatient with them.

They are happier and we can already see improvement in some skills. Math especially.

Their weakest area is in spelling and just the fact that we are patient and go over the words with them several times helps.

Miriam got a hundred on her spelling test and Tirzah got an 84. Tirzah has been failing in spelling and only our work with them both in math brought them up to passing grades last year.
