Overcoming Dyslexia

Is this program right for you?

Many people with dyslexia solve problems by working with a fully dimensional mental image rotating it, pulling it apart, reassembling it, and examining it from every angle with their "mind's eye."

Letters, numbers, and other symbols lose or change their meaning when they are viewed from various angles. This explains why so many dyslexic individuals have above average abilities in many areas, yet struggle with reading and writing.
