Interesting spelling workbook that emphasizes letter height and number of letters for memory while also focusing on reading comp.

Testimonial to Big Al (Dicker Reading Method)

Many thanks and kudos to Big Al and his tutors, especially Julie, for helping Steven with reading and ultimately, confidence and life!

Check out the Dicker Reading Method website: http://www.readingbreakthrough.com/

I first brought Steven, who as you know was labeled dyslexic, to the Dicker Reading Method, when we saw that he was having difficulty learning to read. My niece Hannah had been in the program years before and had made tremendous progress. After just one session, Steven left the Dicker Reading Method reading his first book fluently. We not only noticed an immediate improvement in his ability to read fluently, but also in Steven’s confidence and self-esteem. Now Steven is reading on a sixth grade level. The progress Steven has made with the Dicker Reading Method has been truly remarkable. I highly recommend the Dicker Reading Method to any parent whose child is struggling with reading.
