Levi's letter

In December, 2000 our son Levi attended the Rocky Point Academy under the tutelage of dyslexic corrective specialist Larry Smith.

The program ran for 4.5 days.  Each day Levi was greeted by Larry and Stacey with a warm smile.  On the fifth day parents were invited to join the group to view what progress had been made.  Forming words with clay was one of the new tools he learned.  This has helped him to memorize words.  He is also finding it easier to focus.  Larry made Levi feel very comfortable and so he really enjoyed working with him.  Larry helped to build Levi's confidence.

Levi can now work with his newly learned tools at school.  They help him to concentrate on his school work and not get so easily distracted.

As much as the session at Rocky Point Academy helped, Levi knows that he must do it on his own.  Only he can apply himself to improve in his school work and so earn better grades.  He is the one who has to want to make these changes.

Levi has a schedule that he has made up for himself, from the Academy.  He follows this schedule because it's making everything easier for him, whether it's reading for 15 minutes, building words with clay (Symbol Mastery) or using the Koosh balls.

The Academy calls us at home to see how things are going.  We appreciate the concern about Levi's progress that this shows.  We feel that Larry works very hard and is very understanding.  He has taught Levi a very special tool to get him through life.

We would recommend this program to people who are wanting to improve.  This program shows you a way to improve, if you are willing to work.
