Hello Sena, I would be happy to talk to you and see if I can help. The best thing to do is for you to go to the description below the video, there you will find two links there, one is my website, one is the main Davis site. If you go to my website you can email me directly, if you go to the Davis site you will have to search for my by name. We can correspond from there, I look forward to talking to you soon.

I am glad you are finding it helpful.

You are welcome.

Taking a quick look, it looks like an adapted phonic based approach that was developed it the 1950s and is not based on what is coursing dyslexia or any other learning difficulty. I personally I would not recommend it to anyone with dyslexia or to someone with any other LD. Having said that, if a child is not dyslexia or does not have a LD label of any kind then it may work for them.

@@OvercomingDyslexia really. Have you tried it? Its the most complete thorough no nonsense program I have ever seen.

@@eldonjanzen9822 No I have not tried it and I don't need to. As I said it is a phonics program and they are basically all the same. If a program is not dealing with the root cause of the dyslexia then that program is triggering the dyslexia and likely coursing more of a problem. The reason they appear to work is because the child is forcing themselves to focus so it looks like they can read. You may want to watch my other videos # 1, 4 and 11 would be helpful.

@@eldonjanzen9822 No I have not tried it. It looks like a basic phonics program and they are basically all the same when you take a close look. The problem with phonics programs is they are not addressing the root cause so, by definition they could also be creating more of a problem than they are actually fixing. The Davis program is addressing what is causing the learning problem in the first place. This is a very important point to understand, if someone has not understood this then they've missed the point about Davis.

@@OvercomingDyslexia it's just that this SRA reading program is very well organized and it teaches the basic reading and i would guess the expansion activities could be OG techniques. I understand that this reading program is not the end in it self but part a large experience with reading words. This SRA reading proram gives the children a systematic strategy of reading that he or she can use on other words not introduced in the reading program. I have taught so many children with this method and I have not been disappointed. It is ironic that I teach reading because I myself am dyslexic. The road of my life has been rough with many struggles. I personally do not believe dyslexia is a gift but a curse. Most of my friends and associates do not understand this condition. I forget names, I have problems with directions (thank God for Google maps) I forget or can't "see" in my mind the middle letters of words (to spell them, more then six letters long). Thank God for spell checking. I still get my right and left confused. So take it from a dyslexic, direct instruction is God sent. Remember DI its a tool and tools when applied correctly help solve problems.

I understand the feeling, I also felt the same way for many years. Doing a Davis program and then becoming a facilitator changed that for me. If you or someone you know is have difficulty I would recommend you contact a Davis facilitator and do a program. It will change things the better.
