This program explains the concepts of Davis Dyslexia Correction for people who would rather listen than read. At the age of 38, Ronald D. Davis made a discovery about a perception that enabled him to read a book cover to cover: for the first time. The methods he developed have helped thousands of children and adults around the world to overcome reading, writing, study, and attention problems.

You will have a step-by-step procedure to correct procedural difficulties and confusions about written language. The two basic techniques discussed are Orientation Counseling and Symbol Mastery. Many parents with no special training have achieved excellent results by using this program.

Father of a dyslexic. Son of a dyslexic. Am dyslexic myself.

This man knows and says what is happening in a way that gave me insight into my brain but more importantly how to see what’s in my kids brain.

In truth, I listened as I’ve learned that reading…I can’t comprehend but audiobooks are the jam and I can “read” while I do productive things or play solitaire or blackjack…can y’all readers multitask while you read haha. Reading while driving is not dangerous when there is no book or words.

Lastly. Please, to those born with a slow brain:)
Use correct punctuation. Spell correctly. It’s y’all’s letter system so please use it correctly or don’t get frustrated when the fast brains don’t understand what was so easy for the rest. We don’t have time to learn from those being lazy. We couldn’t be lazy sitting in all those English classes, and the math class that some slow brain added letters to the math (thanks for that math), that y’all aced so now do that nerd stuff you do in real life:)
The English class with the loudly ticking clock. Loud ass teacher shoes in the hallway. Candy wrappers. Lights buzzing. Doors shutting. Announcements. Nonstop distractions on top of teachers telling me not to bounce my legs…I needed that bounce and now I know why.

This book means a lot! Clarity is strength.
Thanks to the author from my heart. Can’t put in words the power this book is for me and for my kid.

Legit Knowledge!

I always carry a copy of this book in case I meet someone it can help.
I was always told I had a disability, but I knew my brain worked a little differently.
I felt lost until I found this book.
Every page resonated with me as it taught me to master my ability

Changed my life......

but that hardly matters if you really need this book! Life-changing information for anyone struggling to learn to read.

The recording isn’t great,

now, 2 hours in I write my review to describe how mind blowing it is. I've gone most my life not even knowing I was dyslexic only becoming aware maybe 2 years ago. this is the biggest step I've taken twords understanding it, which it terms brings awareness and understanding of myself. It explains the foundation of my thought process in such a way that is organized enough to recognize it.

I value that the author is reading his own work. I find it relatively ironic, funny and also endearing that while discussing stimulation and distraction you can hear low frequency repetitive beats initially thought it was music but I am uncertain it seems to be masked by some software noise cancelation.

it doesn't happen often and I am more the content with the recording but I found the irony poetic.

thank you for this knowledge.

I am 28 , I cried the first 3 chapters.
