In thousands of homes, children and parents are struggling because of low school achievement. Parents are totally frustrated with the realization that their children are not easily succeeding in schoolwork. The child feels "dumb and stupid" because schoolwork is so difficult and he cannot live up to his parents' expectations.

The student who wants to achieve and, cannot, feels helpless. Every day the printed page continues to be confusing and frustrating. After being moved to lower reading groups or classes, the student assumes he cannot expect success. Other students quickly label him "dummy." Suddenly the exciting school experiences he was anticipating are becoming a bad dream.

At home, the problem is magnified by parental disapproval due to low grades, lost assignments and incomplete work. The student is often trying as hard as he can, but nothing seems to be working. For the next few years, the school attempts various new methods to make his learning experience successful, but none seem to work. In a short time, his personality changes. The once bouncy, excited youth becomes angry, uncommunicative and negative about anything related to school.

This approach to learning is being repeated in thousands of American homes. Children who can develop tremendous learning skills in areas such as mechanical abilities, art, computing or memorizing a football playbook are lost in the average classroom or a resource room. Why have traditional approaches not helped this population?

Through years of private therapy and contracting with hundreds of private schools and individuals, it has been found that the difficulty usually lies in identifying the true source of the problem. We have found that most students with constant failure have developmental problems in processing and/or memory necessary to succeed in the classroom.

ELI is an easy-to-use, computer-based multisensory learning system therapy developed to improve weak modalities.

If a student is not able to learn in the classroom due to the above mentioned causes, repeated efforts using traditional approaches will not usually succeed. Essential Learning Institute (ELI) implements a unique therapy approach called Essential Learning Systems™, enabling the student to develop the skills for learning. It is truly amazing to watch a non-successful student become very excited about school and reading when he has finally developed the skills to achieve.

Therapy-based remediation has been an effective answer for thousands of children and adults with no previous chance of success. In Elkton Maryland, students who enter Essential Learning Systems™ labs improve their reading skills' 96% of the time according to the Director of Special Education.

If there is a chance a therapy approach can offer success for struggling students, no parent, teacher or school should accept failure. Now available for use in the home! Call now!
