Now she loves school and has no issues with behaviour…

“My daughter has suspected dyslexia. She hated school, complained of tummy aches and had frequent behavioural issues at school. After working with the Open Door, she has learned a way to read and spell that makes sense to her, and in only 10 months went from a level 7 to a level 22. Now she loves school and has no issues with behaviour, and her teacher this year actually said that she would have had NO idea there was a reading/spelling difficulty if I hadn’t told her. She is now ahead of grade level and I am so grateful.”
