The evaluators' review stated: "MindPlay's My Reading Coach is, hands-down, the very best reading/literacy, cross-age program we've seen yet. Easy to install and use, full-featured, with everything from assessment and placement testing, phonics and grammar lessons, with bilingual (Spanish/English) and IEP (Special Education/Needs) features, this program will ensure success in struggling readers of all ages. While designed for a classroom setting, we'd like to see My Reading Coach in every remedial language arts classroom, as well as every adult education and community-based literacy program. It's simply that good - an easy BESSIES Multi-Level Reading/Literacy winner. (Available in Windows or Macintosh formats.)" [Apr 2008]
