Testimonials are being received regularly by Facilitators working in all parts of the UK, making it very clear that it is not just in the areas of reading, spelling, writing and Maths that clients are experiencing improvement. Because the programme is holistic, and the causes of the dyslexia are addressed, issues of self-esteem and emotional well-being are understood and dealt with.

Terence, aged 27, was working as a hairdresser whilst also studying at a College of Further Education in order to go on to university and study Pharmacology. Having been dubbed ‘stupid’ at school, Terence nevertheless knew that he had ability and an enormous amount to offer and he also had a burning ambition to go into Pharmacology. Dyslexic, but able to gain meaning from written text quite successfully, he suffered from a basic lack of numerical understanding. None of the methods offered by the College helped and Terence was also frustrated by the lack of understanding by all the tutors he dealt with. He came across the book ‘The Gift of Dyslexia’ and found everything that it said so appropriate to his situation that he was fired with determination to have a Davis Maths programme himself. He got in touch with his local facilitator, Christine East, and after the programme wrote a heartfelt letter which ended as follows:

”I believe that now that after completing the Ron Davis program nothing can stand in my way, I have so much confidence that I can finish my master degree in pharmacology…. Every dyslexic can be corrected if they have the determination to be corrected.”

Other testimonials from clients of Christine:
When asked what changes had occurred in the week of the programme, Colin, aged 44, said:

“(I have) better focus – it’s unlocked a creativity – I’ve more energy – things don’t worry me and I find it easier to relax so I feel I’m probably easier to live with. I don’t think I create negative atmospheres any more. Work situation – when it’s overwhelming, I’m able to go and orientate, release and use energy dial to calm and then go and create ‘order’.”

Jake, aged 15, said:
“I can concentrate on things better. Hold a conversation with one person in a crowded room. I can listen better and hear what they say. I also have more patience.”

Paul, aged 15, said:
"I can read more. I get less stuck on words than I used to. I enjoy reading more than I used to. Feel more confident.”

These are the sort of comments that are received over and over again by Davis Facilitators around the country.
