Students enjoy the exercises and activities and remain highly motivated
throughout the process.
Parents report that their children have a happier, more positive attitude toward learning
and are participating more in school.
"Just 8 weeks into the program I began to notice subtle differences in our son. He was finally
beginning to understand abstract concepts and remember things. His resource teacher
reported that he moved up one level above the other children in his reading group. And his
homeroom teacher began to give my child the same spelling words as the rest of his
classmates because her expectations of his abilities have finally increased.
The end of the 10th week of training brought about the best change we have seen as of yet.
My child came home from school, very confidently tossed his backpack aside, and said to me
with the cutest smirk on his face, 'I had the greatest reading day ever. I read to my teacher so
good that it made her smile all day!'
He absolutely loves the program and can't wait to begin his summer sessions. We are equally
as anxious and excited to see what the next step in this amazing program will bring into our
lives. The greatest gift in the world is for your child to read to you. When my child could not
read, his abilities in every other realm of his life suffered. He lost self-confidence, became
self-conscious and his other school work suffered.
His personality is slowly changing and he is gaining that self-confidence he needs. We are
very grateful that have found a program that works, because believe me, we have tried them
all!"

The Reading Lab programs develop the cognitive skills essential for
learning and reading success. On average, participants can gain 1 – 2
years of reading skills in 8 – 12 weeks of regular, consistent use.
The training programs help bring participants to proficiency quickly by
simultaneously building the cognitive skills of memory, attention,
processing rate, and sequencing, along with the foundational reading
skills of phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and
comprehension.
Students can work either at home or at the clinic. Those who work at
home are closely monitored via the Internet by the Lab Staff and make
the same outstanding gains as students who train on-site at the clinic.
