LEARN MORE ABOUT DYSLEXIA CORRECTION CENTER |
Dyslexia Correction Center in Lubbock, Texas, is a private counseling center that provides individualized programs to adults and children with learning difficulties. It is estimated that fifteen to twenty percent of the world’s population had a learning disability called dyslexia. Dyslexic individuals may have trouble with reading, spelling, and writing, as well as with math, handwriting, focusing attention, movement and coordination, speech, and auditory processing.
In 1981 a research organization for correcting dyslexia, the Reading Research Council, was established by Ronald D. Davis and Dr. Fatima Ali. Their organization and methods are based on personal breakthroughs Ron Davis made with his on severely dyslexic condition. The basic methods used at Dyslexia Correction Center are described in Ron Davis’ books, The Gift of Dyslexia and The Gift of Learning.

Ron Davis believes that dyslexia is a result of an inherent mental gift or talent. People who develop dyslexia think in pictures rather than words. They are imaginative and creative, and they try to solve problems by looking at the whole picture, instead of working step-by-step. Davis Dyslexia Correction relies on using the mental talents that dyslexic people share to overcome learning problems. To do this, students must learn and follow a different approach to learning.

Testimonials
"What a wonderful feeling...a program that finally helped our grown daughter feel good about herself!! Not to mention finally being able to read and enjoy it! It was a very emotional week, and tiring, but well worth it. I will talk to anyone who will listen and recommend the Davis Method and you!!!"

"Sara has developed a really good attitude about her abilities. She can see now that she really has untapped abilities rather than disabilities."
-- Grandmother of 13 year old
"The days that we spent with Laura were very educational. Support training on Friday was invaluable for understanding how dyslexic thought works. The phrase "gift of dyslexia" really rings true in our case! It is liberating and rewarding to understand how to reach our daughter and to watch her enjoy learning again."

"After the first day of class Dalton started reading signs on the way home. That was a first! After creating a word in clay with you, he started writing a book about his word. That was awesome because he was a non-writer!!"
