Feedback Positive Responses
Principal: "Excellent, our parents are indeed in need to get support. The involvement of parents are pathetic. It is time they become part in educating own child. I know if they can see it will work better than reading for themselves."
Teacher: "The links are perfect. I love the homework guide for parents and many more. I see there are learning games for an early child too, that it for pre-grades and forth. I specifically found videos onreading as good and I will surely guide my learners thatare struggling to read in grade 5."
