The answer to overcoming dyslexia requires bridging the gap between scientists and educators, says Dorothy van den Honert, author of the new book, “Wiping Out Dyslexia with Enhanced Lateralization: Musings from my forty years of wiping” (published by AuthorHouse).
In the book, van den Honert outlines her Reading From Scratch program, a new teaching strategy for children with dyslexia. The program, based on years of van den Honert’s research, is designed to get a child up to grade level or better in a year or two of lessons.
“As a teacher for over 11 years, I saw the misery of children suffering from dyslexia first-hand, as the usual teaching techniques failed,” van den Honert says. “Clearly just phonics was not the problem, so I realized that the delivery system had to be faulty.”
The book tells the story of how van den Honert used neurology to form a plan for teaching students with dyslexia to read. She also reflects on the validating experience of passing on the technique firsthand to the students she taught.
