The Author's Personal Commitment
My personal mission is to help others teach someone to read. I have seen the techniques I describe in my book work for young and old alike. I used it in my classroom and when I tutored. I just want to make sure that everyone who is in a position to help someone else with their reading skills has an opportunity to use this book. So, I am giving you my personal guarantee. Buy my book. Read it. Try it out. And if you are not completely satisfied with the results, I will buy it back from you. ... Lorraine Peoples. |
