Customer Voices
As a teacher of students with disabilities, I believe that Waterford is a powerful and effective tool for raising the reading level and overall interest of my students. —Jessica Williams, Teacher, Sullivan Elementary, Arizona I am a special education teacher for children with emotional disabilities and they often have significant learning disabilities. For me, Waterford has opened the door to so many nonreaders. —Daria Conklin, E.D. Teacher, Timberlane District, New Hampshire C.D. is four years old. I have been working with him for over a year. He has never spoken one word at school or at home. In the weeks that C.D. has been using Waterford, he has started singing the alphabet song both at school and at home—and he can now identify his letters. We had tears in our eyes when we heard his voice for the first time. —Michele Littman, Special Education Teacher, Pleasantdale Elementary School, West Orange, New Jersey
