Results After only four months of twice daily programme use, eighty-three 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th year students, all with Dyslexia, ADD/ADHD and other Non-Specific Learning Disabilities had, on average, a 75% greater amount of reading progress as compared to a control group of non-learning disabled students from the same groups. According to the school principal, learning disabled children typically progress in reading ability only 25% to 50% the amount of non-learning disabled students over the same period of time. Showing a 75% greater improvement, with everything else being equal, shows substantial and significant progress as a result of performing Learning Breakthrough activities. All students were tested before the programme began in January 2004. After re-testing in May, the non-learning disabled control group of students showed a 45% increase in the percentage of correct test scores compared to test results from December 2003. The learning disabled students who participated in the Learning Breakthrough Programme, showed a 121% increase. This is an amazing reversal! "I had looked at everything I could find, and the balance and sensory exercise Learning Breakthrough Programme made sense to me, so much so that I took the leap and put it in my school. My goal was to help other parents who I knew from experience were as frustrated as I was and who were additionally desperate to help their children succeed. It’s devastating to see you’re your own child depressed, frustrated, and losing self-esteem by the minute. The same thing had been happening to many children in my school and I just couldn’t sit by and do nothing to help them," Mrs. Ratliff (Principal, Milton Elementary School). 'One of the greatest areas of improvement I have seen with my students has been in the area of visual processing. This improvement produces more retention of sight words, word patterns, maths facts, etc. in the brain. My students love to do the Belgau Balance Board'. Anne Benesch (Reading Specialist) This programme truly is “brain games in space”. It organizes the brain, balances the body and all its parts, builds new neural pathways, focuses, integrates all the sensory input, improves memory and comprehension, and develops spatial abilities. And there are other “fall outs” such as better behaviours in the classroom and more confidence for the individual. This is not hearsay. I have actually witnessed these results. Ruth Cobb Arnold, Ed.D. Professor of Education, Stetson University, Florida My name is AS. I would like to thank you for the Learning Breakthrough Programme because it has helped me a lot. I have improved my handwriting and my spelling scores. I'm very smart, but the board has made it easier to get my ideas on paper. I want to be a Herbalist when I grow up. It has changed my life. I used to feel bored and now work is more fun to do. I used to have bad feelings about myself. Now I think I'm great! So do a lot of other people. It feels good to be able to do my work.
