Providing more than textbooks and a teacher
A child’s academic
struggle can be due to malfunctions in the reading and learning
process that are deeper than what other programs/tutors can correct.
Our skill-based assessments are designed to pinpoint barriers in the
reading and learning process. Our programs repair that through
stimulating the corresponding portion of the brain. The dyslexic
brain uses five times the amount of neural firings than the typical
brain to learn. It is imperative that a student with dyslexia has
additional brain food like in the supplement Balance Formula 1. It
allows the brain to function better, process information better and
prevents visual fatigue. A high protein, low sugar and carbohydrates
diet often helps too.
We believe Pastor Bode Kayode Maxwell: “You came here fully packaged
to overcome all oppositions; to shine like a trillion stars, to
blaze forth like the morning sun”. We tap into that potential with
these programs. Our techniques repair the learning process and
increase your child’s brainpower and ability to learn. We will
improve the overall function of the brains capacity to learn.

The
Listening Program™
is a
Music-Based Auditory Stimulation method that trains the brain to
improve the auditory skills needed to effectively concentrate,
listen, learn, and communicate. It literally exercises and tones
tiny muscles in the ear and helps build stronger multi-sensory
pathways in the brain. The brain receives especially rich auditory
stimulation, and its ability to process sound improves. TLP helps
attention problems, reading/language problems and improves auditory
processing abilities. This program facilitates recovery from
reading difficulties due to vestibular based inadequacies. It is
widely praised by Dr Levinson, a nationally known expert in ADHD and
Dyslexia.

Computerized Brain Gym-The
use of computers for cognitive training allows us to document your
child’s progress each time they sit down. These game-like
brain-training exercises speak to the user in a realistic human
voice, making the individual feel as if they are playing a real
person who encourages, praises, and challenges them to do their
best. They provide an engaging multi-sensory stimulation
that rebuilds the brains ability to learn more efficiently.

The Lexia family of products improve the student's
reading skills through a phonics based, multi-sensory approach.
Based on the widely publicized Orton-Gillingham method, Lexia uses a
combination of sound, images, and software-based manipulatives.
Research has shown that the earlier
children with potential reading difficulties can be identified, the
easier it is to overcome the reading problems.

Our speech
language pathologist privately offers the Lindamood Phoneme
Sequencing Program (LiPS)™. Lindamood-Bell programs are
internationally recognized as one of the most effective methods for
developing literacy skills. The LiPS® Program successfully
stimulates phonemic awareness. Individuals become aware of the mouth
actions which produce speech sounds. This awareness becomes the
means of verifying sounds within words and enables individuals to
become self-correcting in reading and spelling, and speech. Student
health insurance can often be used for her services.
Accomadations Avaialable
Our SOS
computerized curriculum comes equipped with a “read me” function,
that allows them to independently perform at their level of
understanding for all areas of academics, rather than their reading
level. We have found that it is often helpful for a student with
Dyslexia to use a computerized curriculum because of the increased
depth on the page, the backlighting, and the ability to type answers
rather than write. The multi-media presentations help the student to
maintain attention and increase the understanding of the subject.
(See the academic portion of this packet)
Each
student can have a customized intervention plan, when requested by
parents. We offer weighted vests in the classrooms that often speed
up word recognition and reading comprehension. Our ABA often helps
with motivation or behavior elimination plans. We follow Dr
Rosseau’s list of accommodations that includes reduced workload,
elimination of the need for notetaking, no reduction of grade for
reversals etc. Any personal accommodations that have been helpful in
the past can be added to their intervention plans. We welcome
parent and student input to maximize the development of the students
skills needed for successful learning.
Mindware Software
can be added individual plans upon approval.
