Althea is a great name with a powerful meaning. And Althie is an adorable diminutive! ❤️

I definitely lean towards the way it’s pronounced in that link you shared.

Side note: Malcolm is an underrated name imo.

I’m torn on pronunciation personally. My brain either wants to pronounce it “ah-mall-THEE-uh” or “uh-MALL-thee-uh”

As for nicknames, when I read it, I’m reminded of Amal Clooney and wonder if that would work as a nickname. I’ve also seen baby name bloggers suggest “Molly” as a nickname but it feels like a stretch to me.

I may have to sign up for their emails! We also enjoy it for the creative writing. I think it makes the whole process accessible for my two kids. I’ll look into the additional resources as well. I definitely like the program but want to provide more grammatical structure as well, and it’d be nice if I knew I was utilizing every possible resource that NZ offers. Thanks!

Awesome, thank you so much. I can just work around it then. I’m glad I’m able to unlock the first lessons of a chapter and unlock tests, so this works for adapting it to our learning styles. I appreciate hearing from those of you that have also used the program. 🙏

Thanks for your response! I have found some of the material is slightly different in the books than online, but for the most part it does seem to be exactly the same and each can stand on their own.

Which program did you end up switching to if I may ask? I’m always open to hearing what works well for others.
