A mom discovered that her son was having trouble with words, spelling, putting word in the right order when he was only in pre-school. She enrolled him in a school called Wilson Reading Program but she pulled him out shortly after he started because the teachers there had very little education on how to work with dyslexic children.
Student improves grades at Children’s Dyslexia Center of Susquehanna Valley.
After the boy was un-enrolled from the first school, his mother enrolled him in Children’s Dyslexia Center of Susquehanna Valley in Bloomsburg. Being at that school helped the boy go from C’s and D’s in school to A’s and B’s, which is a huge improvement. This school has helped so many people and it’s still available today for attendance.
She said one in five people — 20 percent of the population — is dyslexic. She said children with dyslexia think they are failures because they can’t keep up in school. They also can have trouble with spoken language and can also be diagnosed with attention deficit disorder or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
