As the mother of a dyslexic son, I empathize with parents who feel frusterated with not understanding their bright student's learning differences.
When our son was in 2nd grade, he stuggled mightily with reading. He could get the big words, but no sight words made sense, or seemed to stick in his long term memory. As a reading teacher at heart, this was devastaing for me because I could teach anyone to read and to love it - except my son. .
Handwriting was torture, and spelling made no sense to Noah. He was a visual learner and I tried to capitalize on that, still nothing seemed to work for us. I cried nearly every day the first 6 weeks of school. How could my bright son, whose IQ is pretty high, struggle this much in school?
Finally, I called a friend, and asked for guidance, she met with us immediately and explained Noah's dsylexia, and amazing ways to get us both back on the right track. We both are thankful for her to this day.
At Crisman, our motto is to teach bright children with learning differences to be successful academically, socially, and emotionally. Please call, or come by and let us begin to make a relationship that sets your student up for an amazing future.
Blessings,
