Is
homework a battlefield that brings up frustrations between
you and your child, takes way too long, and leaves your bright
child feeling not so bright?
Dear
Parent,
If
you sometimes feel helpless to support your child when it comes
to learning, you are not the only one. It's a lonely feeling to
see your child struggle in school. They try to hide their limitations
from their parents. They avoid reporting their less-than-stellar
performances with assignments because of embarrassment. Their
self-esteem gets lower and lower with every ‘failure.'
Today
about 14.9 million children are struggling to learn in school
despite proof of their intelligence. Sadly, many of these are
viewed as lazy or unmotivated. Some are taught to cope.
But rarely are the problems eliminated. It doesn't have to be
that way.
I'd
like to share a secret with you…
Most
learning and attention challenges, including diagnosed learning
disabilities and dyslexia do NOT have to be permanent. My name
is Jill Stowell and together with my husband, David, we've been
running the Stowell Learning Center for 26 years. Our unique approach
is designed for struggling learners and we have literally helped
thousands of students not only overcome their challenges but actually
correct them.
Truthfully,
ANYONE with attention challenges and learning disabilities, including
dyslexia, can learn to become a successful student!
At
the Stowell Learning Center, we help people of all ages overcome
learning challenges, including dyslexia, ADD, autistic spectrum
disorders, auditory processing disorders, and learning disabilities.
How do we do it? By helping the student develop underlying processing
skills that are often overlooked by most educational systems,
yet they are critical to academic and social success. Here are
some of the ways that make Stowell Learning Center stand out.
-
Our
programs and strategies are research-based and among the most
highly effective available.
-
We
help students develop the mental tools they need to become
relaxed, independent learners who succeed with less struggle.
-
Each
student's program is completely individualized to meet any
gaps in processing skills, attention, oral & written communication,
comprehension, social skills, reading, spelling, writing,
math, and study skills.
-
We
offer distance learning programs so geography is not a boundary
to getting the help you need.
-
We
train teachers, learning center directors, and therapists
so there are more and more skilled educators to teach our
unique approach all across America.
By
combining a deep respect for the child with an understanding of
learning based on how the brain actually develops and learns,
we bring independence into the experience for the students. And
they love it!
Stowell
Learning is a very different approach from
schools and tutoring…
More
than any other comment, families tell us that yes, their child
can now read, write, spell, and pay attention. But more
importantly, we have changed the lives of both the student
and the family.
We
want students to do better in school, but our mission is much
bigger than just academic success.
There
is an old saying “Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach
a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.”
We
teach and develop skills that start now and last a lifetime.
Sincerely,
Jill
Stowell
