Alex, age 12
In this case study, we follow 12-year-old Alex, who struggled with phonics, reading, and writing. Despite numerous interventions, his challenges persisted—until he found a program that worked.
Alex’s phonological awareness improved from 73% to 100%, his reading scores soared from the 42nd to the 99.9th percentile, and his writing transformed as he gained the confidence to write multi-paragraph papers.
His mom, Beth, shares how this program unlocked Alex’s potential.

"This program seems like it was the key for him. This is fixing it. Without this program, I don’t know how he would have been a functional adult who had to write things down."
After the program:
Writing Progress:
- Increased confidence in writing (e.g., multi-paragraph papers)
- Able to tackle big words with spelling (malfeasance, belligerent, cacophony, pusillanimous)
- Improved writing speed and fluency, now volunteers to read
Overall Confidence:
- Now tackles challenges with a positive attitude, saying "okay" instead of "I can’t do that."
- Confidence in being able to attend college and write papers, something that seemed impossible before
Alex approaches challenges with determination, saying,
"I’m definitely much more confident… I wouldn’t have imagined this six months ago!"

"Without this program, oh my goodness, I don’t know how he would have been a functional adult who would have had to write things down. I mean, even typing was a huge issue for him."
"This program has been huge as far as really unlocking those doors for him and opening a future where he can do what he wants to do. It doesn't have to hold him back."
