Any student who successfully completes the Toe By Toe scheme will have a dramatically improved reading age. Their spelling will also have improved and -
most importantly - their self-esteem will have been transformed. No longer will they feel inadequate when faced with the written word. It is not an exaggeration
to say that this book changes lives...
Just 20 minutes tutoring a day for five months, and a child's reading level will be transformed from this:
He can put the big dog in with the fat ram.
The pet cat is with the duck in the big pen...
to this:
"But now I can read words like chiropodist, philatelist, emphasis and psychologist because I have learnt to build words using the smallest steps of all: Toe By
Toe"
For most people the improvement in reading is enough, but others like to see statistics. Indeed, we always recommend a reading age test before starting Toe by Toe, and again after it is finished. The results are usually astonishing, as the following sample shows: -
| Reading Age (R.A.) improvement from Schonell Test before and after Toe by Toe |
| Name | Age at | R.A. at start | R.A. at end | Improvement | Weeks |
| | start | Years | Months | Years | Months | Years | Months | taken |
| GEORGE D | 7. 7 | 7. | 0 | 11. | 9 | 4. | 9 | 16 |
| CHARLOTTE H | 8. 2 | 7. | 1 | 11. | 9 | 4. | 8 | 23 |
| CONNOR W | 7. 2 | 6. | 6 | 13. | 6 | 7. | 0 | 24 |
| TOM N | 8. 0 | 7. | 2 | 12. | 1 | 4. | 11 | 24 |
| | AVERAGE | 6. | 11 | 12. | 3 | 5. | 4 | 22 |
| Students taught for 30 minutes per day, 5 times per week. |
