Description

There is hope for dyslexic and dyscalculic people!
Dyslexia or dyscalculia is not a weakness, disturbance, illness or even a disability. Each of these are complex phenomena which can have a negative impact on affected individuals, at times even life-defining. 
Providing your child with help when he or she begins to experience writing, reading, or calculating difficulties will avoid any consequent psychological complications. Understanding and an individualized methodology will ensure success!
Through research in Austria, Switzerland, and the USA, Dr. Astrid Kopp-Duller has made a substantial contribution to the development of pedagogical-didactical methods that enable dyslexic and dyscalculic individuals to learn writing, reading, and calculating satisfactorily.
“Dyslexic and dyscalculic people have an exceptional information-processing ability and an associated exceptional learning capability, which places high requirements on the pedagogical-didactical level of intervention.”
Dr. Astrid Kopp-Duller
