The Reading Ranch in Allen. Kim Southwell the owner is amazing!!

There is a tutor in Garland called Mindworks. They have a coupon for a free session on the website www.Metroplex4Children.com They specialize in reading problems. Check thm out. What do you have to lose. They are very near Wylie

I live in Frisco and my son just got accepted into the Dyslexia program for next year. Please let me know if you receive any responses. I am looking for the same thing for my son.
Thanks,

I would looke into Southwest Academy in Allen. They do have a summer multisensory program. They use Take Flight, so I'd make sure that is the program in Wylie as well. Good luck.

Dear A.,

I don't think anyone would argue the point that there are some processes in the brain not working perfectly that are causing your son to struggle. His issues with reading and school are the symptoms of some disorganization in the processes of seeing and visually understanding information.

Also of note is that Dr. David Sousa, in the book How the Brain Learns to Read, presents solid research that concludes that up to 80% of children diagnosed with dyslexia have auditory processing struggles. This is something rarely addressed by traditional programs and one of the limitations in their success record.

I would love to invite you to a seminar this Saturday (May 30) about brain development. During this class, you will learn how the brain develops, and how to stimulate brain growth in order to improve function. As a mother, I have used the program successfully to cure my daughter of dyslexia in less than 1 school year. That was 5 years ago, and she is now in the PACE program (gifted learners) and a standout on the track team and the only person from her whole middle school to be selected for All-Region Mixed Choir. Bottom line---she is doing beautifully when every day used to be a HUGE struggle.

Please private message me if you would like more info about the class.

Southwest Academy in Allen and Shelton School in Dallas both offer Dyslexia summer programs. Hope this helps.

I am doing an affordable poetry summer day camp. You can read details under business reviews here on mamasource. I am holding the camp for 2 weeks/2 hours each day.It will also include outdoor time. The camp name:For the Love of Poetry.It is also listed @ gisd web-site under community board.

I have heard awesome things about the READING RANCH in Allen: www.thereadingranch.com

I would call Scottish Rite and see what they offer. Schottish Rite provides the Dyslexia program for the Wylie ISD. In my opinion, Wylie ISD has one of the best phonics programs around (We moved to the Wylie ISD when my middle son was in 4th grade....and he was on a first grade reading level....and they got him caught up to at least his grade level by the end of the year. He is now in ninth grade and doing very well. He took the reading TAKS test last year for the first time and passed it!

Because of that, I would trust whatever Scottish Rite offers for dyslexic children!
