[@tomdeepan6093]

I just got tears . am 32 years old and I still struggle to read . because I had no idea of all this till now . I thank you with my soul 😢😢😢

[@liliannino2337]

I’ve been teaching for 20 years and I have never in my life learned that much of information, knowledge, and methods as I did in this one hour. Video. I can’t thank you enough ✌🏻👍🏻

[@ivonneeasley1964]

I am a teacher and an English Learner. I have taken all the English classes there are out there. I have never heard English explained like this. I am so happy to have listened to your instruction. I am going to listen to all of your videos. Amazing work. Congratulations!!!

[@hannabaroncelli8297]

I struggled through school and learning throughout most of my adult life this gave me hope that with the right tools 8 can over come my visual and reading comprehension disabilities even as a grown up. 🙏

[@ginascott5397]

You may need it for you kids .

[@ginimathews6550]

Hats off to you! This is the best program on dyslexia ever seen...

[@laquintalin]

AWESOME seminar. as a graduate student, this really helps me become a better teacher and it has given me some tools for the Praxis. thanks

[@christinepierson1396]

That was powerful! We are being referred to this program to help one child who is behind in reading, but will definitely help my 2nd son who started out in the NICU, had sensory issues and diagnosed with ADHD and has finally come up to grade level in reading but worlds behind in writing. I'm so excited!!!

[@melissamiller-wallace7181]

Thank you! A game changer for teaching my Son when the Schools refuse.

[@sarahreid3047]

Hi my name is Sarah Reid I am 15 years old and I have dyslexia watch this make me emotional and English and maths are very hard my school I have special need I didn’t find out till s1 at Carluke high school.

[@jamievancleve9116]

One of the most informative videos I have watched in a long time. I learned more from this video than I have from several PDs I have attended. Thank you

[@saminace6670]

THANK YOU! you are amazing! this needs to be everywhere!

[@mynameisalikhan]

God bless you Shantell, you have done a tremendous job.

[@vrianaasitapesiwarissa5417]

Yes cannot thank you enough Ms Berrett.

[@LoveMe-ei2ib]

My son is 14 , it took me forever and alot of trial and error to even learn about processing. I finally got a diagnosis from UC Berkeley optometry clinic but no one knew how to teach him. Our School district offered a Reading clinic program mimicking the Lindamood-Bell program and until he got to fifth grade is when we had a glimmer of hope. I'm so excited to see what you address here about the mouth shapes which also are used in the Lindamood-Bell program. This also is even more helpful because he is now in middle School and still not pass the fourth grade reading level so your point about passing this level is appreciated because now I know the next step is to continue to help him develop when moving towards high School thank you so much.

[@melvern946]

Follow this woman. She KNOWS of which she speaks!!!!! I can't get enough.

[@katiaenmiami4901]

Awesome program. Wise and impressive teacher. I loved this video. I have watched it completely and I will watch it over and over again. I want to buy the program. Definitely

[@gomjabbar2915]

Do not use yellow marker on a white board. Use black. Children with visual processing disorder need high contrast colors.

[@marialaurascasso1290]

Excellent! Thank you! I teach dyslexic students that learn English as a second language. I had tried to figure out open and closed vowels many times before. Now it is as clear as water!

[@VanDowall]

Well, I'm glad everyone else here got what Shantell was talking about. I am totally confused, which makes me feel like walking out. I have failed and will continue to do so, simply because of my receptive processing disorder. I kept beating myself up, struggling to make sense of it and all I got out of was stress and anxiety. It's not worth it anymore.

[@shantellberrettblake4132]

JoAndra Van Dowall I’m so sorry this experience was so frustrating for you. I went through this so quickly it can be hard for many to grasp. Normally this takes 12 hours of training to teachers. Please don’t beat yourself up. Your processing disorder simply means you need more time and more of it. It has nothing to do with your intelligence. Doing the actual program at your pace might really be helpful. Feel free to email me if you have more questions. [e-mail]

[@luthientinuviel9942]

This is an amazing lecture. It will definitely help me with my struggling beginner readers. Thank you so much.

[@tanmayishrisumanth]

bless you! thank you so much. I teach reading and become desperate everytime a student doesn't progress on par with his peers. I understand now that the systematic phonics instruction must be given until the child learns to apply the skills.

[@michaelverola9987]

Thank you so very much. What great information!

[@marytaylor1456]

This seminar was very educational, i learned som things about dyslexia that i will utilize when the time present itself.

[@ramonguzman9311]

Mind blown! Wish they would have gave her two hours

[@heatherbixby415]

I began home schooling my daughter becuase her teachers kept sending home all of these sticky notes as though I wasn’t working with her. I decided to take her to therapy and homeschool. I now have discovered she has VPD!

[@zacheryfagans3103]

great job! This has really help me understand my miner disorder. which is me being dylexia. thanks

[@sonialynnstation9905]

I am very very excited about this!

[@alcapulong3265]

You are a good teacher thanks a lot ma'am

[@ivettejimenez9218]

This was well executed and informative.

[@gw2276]

I wish they had this in the 90s

[@igotboredbutcouldntthinkof8018]

this is brilliant! thank you

[@priscillarivers699]

Hi I stumbled across this recording searching for ways to help my 7 year old who was diagnosed with SDD (Significant Developmental Delay). When we found out and him placed in IEP, it was flowing VERY well but we are now in a pandemic and well, remote learning from home is what we have to do. I am SCARED TO DEATH as a stay at home mom but am motivated to do all I can to help my son achieve success. Is there any and I do mean ANY kind of resource we can use at home to help him? Even if we have to pay someone for virtual tutoring for him.... HELP!!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@billybrave14]

really a great video, you have a great method to explain all this information

[@gomjabbar2915]

How do you deal with a child who isn't sure what letter he is seeing, e.g. doesn't know if he's looking at a 'b' or a 'd'?

[@melissaberberich5097]

Hey, Lisa. Honestly, it depends on the child. Shantell shares a dictation method in a different video where she says the word or sound twice "lower case b; lower case b" then the child repeats it twice (vitally important), then they write it down. Something that I've used with students on b and d specifically is to show them the word "bed" . "b" is the headboard. "d" is the footboard. I even draw a little stick figure to make it more visual.

[@rebeccabarra5779]

I tell my students to use their fists and put them together to make their bed. Doing this they make what looks like a bed with their hands (bd). Then I tell my students to start to say their abc's a, b (shake the b fist) c, d (shake the d fist). You can also model this as a drawing write bd and draw the outline of a bed around the letters and color it in.

[@kellyleigh1339]

Writing helps, but this is something readers often do, as the letter box was for facial recognition and allowing for one to recognize a face from any side and this is what a child is doing with these letters. They have to be desensitized and this will happen with writing and multiple experiences in doing what is recommended by the facilitator.

[@aliciamcknight5946]

This. Is. Gold.

[@mariamasouridis8810]

This is great. Can you help me with math word problems? Do you have a video?

[@beverlysimple411]

Loved it!

[@cristiruiz8512]

Yes cann😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@carrieandglenn]

Super wish that we had a program like this :(

[@this.esther]

This is very helpful. Usually, how long does it take to teach these methods?

[@dionnedene4523]

Thank you so much

[@anthonymichael6152]

Okay, this is confusing because you referenced the tonal scale, (do,ra, mi) however, the very sound you reference in this tonal scale is spelled "FA". This is interesting if you have some examples where "fa" on its own is pronounced differently than the tonal scale. Because if that's the case, then first grade teachers everywhere should re assess the value of making children spell & sound out the tonal scale, as well as having them sing the tonal scale song in a school play, rehearsing and spelling what is apparently incorrect in the pronunciation of the same joined letters of the english language. If I were to assume you are correct in your teaching, then that means that at least in my first grade class (and I'm sure most others), there was no distinction made between the phonetic differences of "fa" in the english language and the tonal scale. Teachers not clarifying these critical pronunciation differences, while teaching children to spell and simultaneously having them heavily study the musical scale on their very impressionable minds, would definitely imo make one consider if dysgraphia is more the result of a learned behavior through incomplete education than it is from a brain deficiency, or the current considered attributable causes. It also makes me believe that simultaneously introducing some form of musical education at the same time you're teaching kids to spell is a huge error injudgement

[@nataliedyck8312]

i think you are confused, its not at all what she was saying.

[@nataliedyck8312]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGqwo6hjZdeVoZo listen to it again.

[@clairepaul3573]

Is there any way I can learn from this program ? I am in university and have found it very hard... I have irlen dyslexia and am getting testing for other processing issues and am really finding it hard... and think this will improve my abilities if I can work on this

[@pm-r6136]

How did you use it for spelling? Did you have them write each individual sound??

[@Yacoba_Israel]

I would like to know if your computer program will do all of what you said in this video.

[@Anartexperience]

Great workshop.. 👍👍

[@celmonby]

Great video fellow.

[@BrianBusath]

33:01 Vowel hand signs. (vowel cues)

[@nancybroshat7670]

How do you explain words like "limit" and "finish" where one consonant is in between yet the vowel makes the short sound?

[@shireenpaeper8860]

So this reply is probably way to late but I just watched the video today. "limit" and "finish" are broken up into the following in terms of syllables: fin ish and lim it. So as you can see in both instances the first vowel has a guardian consonant, hence a short vowel and the second vowel also has a guardian consonant, one being a stand alone and the other being a blend. PS - I looked up the syllable breakdown to make sure I was correct in their composition when decoding the words. They are correct

[@kellyleigh1339]

I think maybe this person is wondering why these words are divided this way instead of finish being divided before the consonant. This is where flexibility comes in and teaching that. It’s best to stick with words that divide the way we usually expect them to, but being flexible is key also. You definitely want children to gain confidence in our system before moving into the words that can be more confusing. I taught my son to flip and this worked wonders. He does it automatically because he was taught from the beginning this way, but this may not work well for others. I’m just offering what has worked for us. Good luck!
