Sam had considerable learning difficulties, including a diagnosis of dyslexia. The recommendation made by the educational psychologist was that he should attend a special remedial school such as Livingston. But considering the school is so far from home we decided as a family to try a year of attending Edublox, and some OT, before making a final decision.

The progress Sam made last year was astounding! He has gone from getting 2’s and 3’s on his report at the end of Grade 2 to getting 4’s and 5’s at the end of Grade 3!!! His confidence level has increased dramatically. His reading has gone from being 1 year 6 months below the average ability for his age, to now being at the appropriate level for his age. Now he just needs a little bit more support and encouragement, and so we are continuing with one Edublox session a week. He certainly does not need to attend a specialist remedial school!

Thank you Yolande at Edublox for all the time and effort you have put into Samuel.
