More Reasons Teachers Love The Nardagani Reading Program

From middle school teachers to ESL instructors to literacy specialists who frequently work with challenged readers who have been diagnosed with a reading disability and qualify for IEP (Individual Education Program), know the Nardagani Reading Program works. Moreover, teachers who used the Nardagani Reading Program, during teacher-based research studies that were implemented in the United States public school system, saw student reading improvement and the data gathered was dramatic. 

Here is what teachers have to say about The Nardagani Reading Program:

“Even though the Nardagani course is very short, it ends up being more effective than some of the other courses, because the students can jump into reading right away. They can jump into the Nardagani stories right away. When it comes to other sorts of programs, those stories are very short, their sentence structure is very simple, there is not a lot of complexity, and just feels like it’s not real reading. However, with the Nardagani method, they can just jump in, they can read, and they are successful.” -Beth Zuschlag, Literacy Specialist, Anser Charter School

“A 5-year-old, bilingual kindergarten student with no prior reading instructions was taught Nardagani on the eight-lesson plan. At the end of 10 weeks, this student showed marked improvement and tested at a second-grade reading level without the Nardagani symbols upon exiting kindergarten.” -Jon Buckridge, English teacher, Nampa School District

“Data gathered shows that completing the Nardagani program can yield a large amount of growth in a short time frame. … I have been teaching special-education language learning labs for three years, and until being introduced to the Nardagani Reading Program had not found a program that teaches decoding in a different way than it is traditionally taught in the primary grades. The method of teaching needs to be different because the previous approaches have either not worked, or only partially worked. A need for a novel approach also exists because the system of special education at the state level requires teachers to use some form of research-based intervention curriculum. Our current options are few and, quite frankly, poor.” -Jody Braun, Special Education, Lake Hazel Middle School, West Ada School District
