We create computer-based programs for teaching struggling readers:

• Designed specifically for Dyslexic Learners and their Dyslexic Strength
• Incorporating the latest in neuroscience research and AI
• Visual-Spatial and Multi-sensory

Neuroscience research shows us that the more Dyslexic learners use visual-spatial thinking during reading, the better their reading proficiency becomes – with a 92% correlation!

Our mission is to equip educators with the knowledge and skills to deliver a simple and effective structured literacy system that empowers all students to access their world.

We combine the trusted principles of the Orton-Gillingham method with a research-based comprehensive strategy. The result is a beautifully simple and highly effective structured literacy system that equips educators to assist struggling readers, especially those with dyslexia.
