First-stage: apply mental tools while working to lower confusion, improve focus attention & regulate energy

Third stage: adapt the tools to your life & support training for the adult who will assist you or your child with the home-study portion of the program.  Parents, grandparents and teachers interested in helping the student are invited the last morning of the program where together we learn to adapt the new tools and methods to the home-study.  Everything necessary for the home-study work is included.

*Children 5-8 years old qualify for the Davis Reading Program for Young Learners.                                        Research studies show that young children exposed to Davis methods are significantly more likely to qualify for gifted education programs. In four years of research trials no children were referred to special education services. Basic word recognition skills were also among the highest levels for this age group.

Attention Deficit Disorder: Does your internal clock seem to move differently than everyone else's?  Does the world seem to go by at a different pace than yours?  t on point

The Davis Dyslexia programs at OnPoint include specific tools for self-regulating attention focus and energy levels.                Mental focusing and energy control techniques will enable children and adults to work and study without reliance on medications that are commonly prescribed for ADHD.  You will learn to use the tools to help you assume control and responsibility for your own behavior.  Here are some noticeable behaviors that we address:foc

  • difficulty taking turns
  • acting before thinking
  • difficulty focusing
  • excessive movement
  • struggles with organization skills
  • focus too quickly shifts from one activity to another
  • fails to finish one task before moving on
  • easily distractedus
