Travis Harker shares his family’s frustrating journey that ended in success and improved understanding of their daughter’s learning challenges and of the tools that she can use to keep building reading skills. When their daughter was in third grade her school provided her with a reading tutor and encouraged her parents to drill her on words. The more her school and parents pushed her to do word drills the more she began to resist the process.
Diagnosing dyslexia is rarely easy.
In the fourth grade Harker’s daughter underwent testing that revealed she is dyslexic. Now she is benefiting from reading education that emphasizes learning based on evidence rather than on memorization. Harker realizes he had mistakenly viewed her challenge through his own difficulties with math as a youngster, when he benefited from working harder on memorization. Now his daughter works smarter with new and effective methods.
