Explode the Code online is great! Our daughter is progressing and learning quicker than if I was teaching her!She enjoys it. -Ms. K.

I having been using the ETC workbooks for years with my children and liked them. I love the online version even more! My son whom we adopted from China a year ago is ten years old. His reading in English is making huge strides using ETC online. I highly recommend it! -Leslie.

Our son had gotten it in his head that he was stupid and couldn't read because of a bad experience in school. Truthfully phonics is not my strong suit so I didn't feel like I could teach him the best way or the easiest way. I purchased Explode the Code for him. He was not excited at all and there were tears the first couple of times we sat down together. But tears have turned to smiles!!!! We do 10 min a day together. He does the work, but I sit with him for encouragement. He's a different kiddo!! After 3 weeks he is reading better, but more importantly he has confidence that he can read. That's the biggest difference and what makes this momma smile! -Natalie.

I think this is a great program. I do wish the program gave an assessment at the start so that it would know exactly where to start my daughter. She enjoys the practice. -K. H.

With us in the midst of a busy season and me falling behind in our phonics lessons, this has been a great resource for my 1st grader. He can do it independently! My 9, 7, and 5 year old all look forward to it because it seems so fun to do school on the computer. With the books I planned on buying this year, this discounted online program offered me a better deal financially. I have enjoyed this product and I have told others about it! -Emily.

I am so happy that I purchased Explode the Code online to use with my 7 year old son. He has been diagnosed with dyslexia and it is a great supplement to another program that we use. Usually I have him do three sessions at a time but he always wants to do more. I can see progress in his reading. -Felicia.

This has definitely helped my daughter with her reading. Great product. -Kathi L.

Both of my children have used the online version of Explode the Code and love it. They can't wait to earn airplanes and just try harder to avoid bees. Both of them show improvement quickly and I think the auditory as well as visual nature of it engages them. Add in the tactile nature of typing or using a mouse, and we have all learners covered. I love this program. -Kathryn M.

I am using this program for my daughter with special needs! She has Down syndrome. She is getting far more from the computer program than she did the workbook. It helps engage her more in her learning experience. I appreciate it can be done again and again until it is mastered. -Penny T.

My daughter (1st grade) has really enjoyed working with this program. Sometimes she gets wrong answers just because it's really unclear what the program is looking for as the right answer, so I don't take complete stock in her scores. However, there have been many times when we were reading together and she would say, "I know that because of Explode the Code." -Jen.

My Kindergarten boy is so excited anytime he gets to use the computer, so using this program is a plus. He loves earning stickers and rewards after lessons. I love that he can learn independently to reinforce what we work on together. I've used ETC workbooks with my older kids, but this is offers great flexibility and added fun to our lessons. -Jenny K.

Explode the Code online has given my daughter the chance to have reading excercises that constantly assess and stretch her abilities little by little. It gives her great reading practice and continual learning all while playing a computer game. It has really helped her improve her reading skills in just one month of using it! -Glynn.

My son has some learning challenges. It's a slow and steady pace with ETC, but he loves it and it is sinking in! He has challenges with writing, so the online version is SO MUCH better than the workbooks for us. I hate to keep him back simply b/c his dexterity skills are behind. -Michelle.

Two of my children are currently using Explode the Code online. One is just learning to read and the other can read but has dyslexia. They both are doing very well with the program, given that they have very different learning needs. Explode the Code online is very easy to use and as their teacher, it is also very easy to track their progress. I highly recommend Explode the Code online! -Candace H.

My daughter loves the online version of Explode the Code. The struggle of having her do her workbook pages is over! And the online version goes back and reviews the lessons she still needs to work on. It is so much easier than seeking out worksheets to help with those problem areas! -K. D.

My son loves this online program. Instead of having book work for every subject he loves that he can play on the computer. I have it set up where he plays for 30 minutes and then a play button appears. 1. So he knows he is finished and 2. He can be "rewarded" to play one of the games that pop up if we have time. -N. A.

This really helped my 4th grader to read better & now I am using it for my 6 & 4 yr olds. We really like the program, it is set up well to help reading. -Trish E.

Explode the Code (online version) has been a true blessing in our family. We are reserved about how much computer time our children use. However, with five kids two of whom are still little, I needed something to improve my 3rd DD's reading skills. She had fallen way behind. With such a big and busy family, I needed to outsource some help with her reading. Explode the Code, has been that help. With the online version, she is excited to spend some time on the computer, and it is fun for her. It has helped her with the basics she has needed and has jumped the hurdle to becoming a true reader. As with all readers, there is that initial hurdle you must climb before you can become an independent confident reader, and read for enjoyment. Explode the Code has been the answer in our busy family. -Jenifer K.

My kindergartener loves Explode the Code. Even in the short month we've been using it, I see improvements in his reading. -K. P.

My son enjoys using the Explode the Code program. He particularly loves to print out the certificate at the end of a book. It keeps him motivated and working hard. -Sheryl.
