Overall Satisfaction with Read&Write

I begin teaching students the tools in grade 3 for composition, editing, and reading. I teach every 3rd grader and then remind all the grade 3-6 teachers to include my videos and resources in their Google Classrooms. I'm the point person to find glitches in our district as well, and have worked with your team to get to the bottom of such glitches. Unfortunately, after 16 years the budget has cut my position in district. I'm unsure how the software will continue to be utilized without an integration specialists helping teachers and students. I feel like I've been the biggest advocate for the software and now am worried that it will go underutilized. I've created, taught, and integrated TextHelp products into the very fabric of our curriculum. I hope it's enough. Please reach out to me for more. I've done the most work around your software than any other.
  • Helps students compose.
  • Helps students edit.
  • Helps students read comfortably.
  • When a tool doesn't work as intended, it can tank the whole lesson. At times, it's a ton of back and forth with Text help to alleviate the issues.
  • The tools are amazing, but I had to figure out the best way to teach students to use them in both reading and writing, and by age group.
  • Students learn with this product.
  • Writers who aren't great typists can get their words into Docs without tears or struggle.
  • Universal Design for Learning is at my core, this product helps everyone.
I've had to work pretty hard to get to the bottom of things and feel like I did some of the heavy lifting, i.e. the Voice Notes issue.
It's my everything.
We've used Read&Write for so long, the rest is just history.

Read&Write is the best software I would recommend to any district. I've recommended and argued against spending money in [...] to 100s of companies. Read&Write is the only one I put a hard foot down; it is the one product I have always insisted on. The ties to SBA are incredible; this is also an area which I've created the connection to for my district. Again, I worry what happens starting next year.
