Mike, Michela's dad writes...
Michela has recently completed the five day program with Helen McGillivray at Mind Over Dyslexia and my wife and I are super pleased with the results. More importantly, Michela is even more pleased. She is happier now, more in control and her self esteem has soared! Her reading level has jumped substantially in just a few months. In the past, she would avoid reading. At times, it was a battle to have her read. We love the fact that she now just picks up a book, magazine or flyer and reads on her own! Her printing and spelling have improved as well. But the most important point is that Michela sees her improvement and she is now much more confident. It is almost like the fog has lifted!
We were fortunate to stumble on to the Davis Program and Helen McGillivray at Mind Over Dyslexia. Helen is one of the nicest, compassionate, experienced and professional person you will ever meet. She is very good at what she does. We are so glad we chose Helen to help us. If while reading this letter or the book "The Gift of Dyslexia" you see similarities to yourself or your child, don't hesitate to enroll in the program. We would have most certainly continued to spend the same money on tutoring this year and in my opinion achieved nowhere near the same results. If you could see the joy in my child's face now that she "gets it", now that the fog has lifted, you'd sign up yesterday and pay double the fee.
Jason’s mom writes (6 months after the program):
As you know when Jason first visited with you his reading and writing skills were well below the grade 3 expectations. Not only were his reading and writing skills weak but his level of participation and enjoyment in the classroom was also very weak. Since participating in your program we have seen and felt a significant improvement (in what seems a remarkably short period of time) not only his reading and writing skills but also in his level of happiness and contentment which we absolutely believe stems from the tools given to him through your program. Jason successfully completed his grade 3 school year by increasing his marks in every subject.
