Your Child’s School May Not Understand How Your Child Processes Language Comprehension and Thinking
For hyperlexic students reading is a fluent process, but not fluently understood. Traditionally, it is harder for instructors to help create meaning to these words and awaken a connection to what is read.
Without lesson plans that help create the ability to form crucial connections and concepts around reading, hyperlexic children often maintain a poor vocabulary - limiting their ability to connect to others, express themselves or develop opportunities.
Tutoring That Helps Your Child Share Themselves with the World.
Hyperlexia is a filter to the world and not a limitation. Through Visualizing and Verbalizing® tutoring your child will begin to understand concepts behind reading and begin to touch deeper parts of themselves - parts that they can share with the world and with themselves.
Here, we develop concept imagery, or the ability to form an image-based concept from language - serving as a basis for comprehension and higher order thinking. The development of concept imagery improves reading and listening comprehension, memory, oral vocabulary, critical thinking, and writing.

We approach creating concepts by helping your child develop connections to imagery from language. Each student will be guided through 20 sessions for developmental progress in a way that works for them.
03
SHARE THEIR WORLD
Your child will begin to deepen their understanding of themselves and their world through language - providing them increased opportunities to share more of who they are and further enrich their lives and those around them.
Turning Reading to a World of Comprehension
Your child can develop more depth of awareness and expression in a way that will allow them to connect to their own brightness, and gifted warmth. As a student it is also crucial for them to form connections to language and reading that will help them stay on track, and not apart from their peers.
Most school systems have curriculums that are not suited for divergent learning or hyperlexia in particular. By using Visualizing and Verbalizing® approaches for over two decades, I have helped hundreds of students that have exhibited hyperlexic traits develop their own expression and autonomy - with methods to create their own sense of the world around and within them.
