Dr. Carver’s Computer Assisted Reading Tutor (CART)
published by Revrac Publications, Inc.

“This has the potential to eliminate illiteracy.”
– Dr. Ronald P. Carver,
Professor Emeritus,
University of Missouri – Kansas City

“CART is a very effective way of providing students
a way to increase their reading skills.”

– Donna Wilson,
Guidance Counselor and Former Reading Specialist

Why CART Works

Designed for readers in grades 3-14

CART will assess a student’s current reading ability, and then start them in the program at the appropriate level. The program covers a wide range of reading ability – all in one program! One CD will grow with your child, all the way from second grade through the sophomore year of college.

Lessons Build Spelling and Vocabulary Fast

By teaching spelling and vocabulary, a student’s reading ability will improve dramatically. CART teaches a student the meaning of new words, how to spell words, and how to recognize those words quickly in text. Through this method, a student can improve their reading rate and fluency because they will no longer have to stop and sound out the word or think about the word’s meaning. Their reading achievement will greatly improve.

Researched and proven effective

In a scientific study, 88% of students using CART gained 1.0 or more grade equivalents during the school year. In the classroom control group, only 37% gained 1.0 grade equivalents during the year. Sadly, this means that students who don’t get the tutoring they need will get further and further behind.  With our tutoring program, many students have seen an increase of 3 grade levels in one school year.

Students work independently and at their own pace

Homeschooling families love the fact that each child in the family can work at their own level and at their own pace. A parent is needed in the beginning to help the student understand the directions for taking 3 computerized assessment tests, but once the student starts on the program, no further assistance or supervision is required.

CART is cost effective

Up to six students can use the computer tutor, making the program very cost effective for a homeschooling family – only one program to buy! Since CART can be used for students who read in grades 3-14, all ages can share the program on one computer.

We offer a 100% Guarantee

CART will increase reading ability by 2 grade levels with 100 hours of instruction or the cost of the program is refunded in full. That’s how confident we are that our program works.  Our guarantee is even good for up to 12 months from the date of purchase.
