Davis Dyslexia Correction program (Ron Davis author of the gift of dyslexia)

http://www.dyslexia.com/  Ron Davis believes that dyslexia is a result of an inherent mental gift or talent. People who develop dyslexia think in pictures, rather than words; they are imaginative and creative; and they try to solve problems by looking at the whole picture, rather than working step-by-step. Davis Dyslexia Correction relies on using the mental talents that dyslexic people share to overcome the learning problems. To do this, students must learn and follow a different approach to learning.

Lindamood-Bell

   

“We Create the Magic of Learning!”
http://www.lindamoodbell.com/  Our goal at Lindamood-Bell is to develop language processing so everyone can learn to his or her potential. In order to be a proficient learner, in any subject, it is critical that an individual is able to efficiently process information, either by listening or reading. Our instruction helps a wide range of individuals of all ages (5 through adult) by addressing the underlying skills necessary for independence and self-correction. Beyond traditional subject tutoring, we focus on the development of processing skills. It is common to see years of learning gain in just weeks of intensive instruction.
