In Linda Axelsson's new article in Siljan News, teacher Ulrica Elisson Grane (owner of the blog Ullis skolsida and the account @ullisskolsida on Instagram) and her student Linnea Kers talk about how Imvi's training has helped them.
Linnea is in sixth grade and has been training with Imvi during school hours since January of this year. She has suspected dyslexia and used to have difficulty concentrating, something that has improved a lot after training with Imvi. She happily says that “reading is much better and faster”, and that the training has helped her a lot in all subjects. In addition, the effect of the training has been visible in her results on the national exams.
Another student at Ullvi School has been training during the spring. Ulrica says that both that student and Linnea made big improvements on the test they do to measure reading speed in sixth grade. The limit for a sixth grader is 95 words per minute, and Linnea is now over 100 words per minute.
Linnea says it is now much easier to keep up with reading comprehension tests. She also has time to read the subtitles when she watches films and TV programmes. Unfortunately, the increased reading speed means that she also reads manga much faster, as she jokingly points out.
One of the biggest advantages of Imvis training according to Linnea is that it is not strenuous at all. She and her friend have trained by watching programs from Binogi, UR Play and SVT Play. Favorites are Lilla aktuellt and Geografens testamente.
