The service provided to educators in our area is unmatched! Thank goodness someone has picked up the torch and is lighting the way for all our amazing children who are wired differently, but have so much amazing-ness to offer. Educating the educators who hold the key to unlock this creativity is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you FLC!

I had tried different types of homeschool curriculum to help my daughter, but it wasn't until I went through the training to become a Literary Intervention Specialist that I began to understand what her issues were and how I could help her. While I was only able to use the early part of the program with her, I have continued to tutor other children and am amazed at the results. I have seen them go from barely being able to sound out a word to spelling and reading multi-syllable words. It is very rewarding to work with these children using this program and they do not get bored because of the multi-sensory aspect. I tell other parents my regret at not finding the Center earlier and urge them to be pro-active with their children at an early age. The staff at Fundamentals are top-notch and vested in the goal that all children be able to read fluently.

I have always had an interest in reading difficulties for students that I taught. There are many different programs that try to address this issue and during my career it seems I may have tried them all. However, it was not until I went to teach overseas that I could see teaching English reading and writing to Arabic students demanded a thorough knowledge of phonics. When I returned for a summer vacation I took a course in Alphabetic Phonics with what is now the Fundamental Learning Center. Oh, wow, I was totally lost when I first used this method of teaching students. I cannot tell you how helpful and patient the staff at FLC were with me! Since working there as one of their first therapists, I have taken a job working with students who have behavior and emotional issues in a special education setting. I have also done tutoring with other students not in my classroom. I cannot tell you how rewarding it is to see students make huge strides in reading and I always feel like I have performed this little "miracle". I have such faith in this program and regret that more students in regular education settings are not receiving this method of instruction. I am retiring from teaching this year and feel badly as I have a treasure trove of knowledge now that I wish I had had earlier in my career. It has been such a pleasure to use Alphabetic Phonics and see the growth of students. Donate and help others achieve that "miracle" work.
