“11 year old Reuben and his Mum and Dad are a testament to the great results that can be achieved when a family makes a commitment to the Learnersaurus program and improving literacy skills. By the end of 2017 Reuben had devoured most of my Barrington Stoke chapter books and this year is becoming an increasingly confident and fluent reader."

"Chloe’s grades have improved from D’s to C’s & B’s. As great as this, I am most proud of how much her confidence has improved and now she wants to read and write - something she would previously refuse to do, because, in her words, “it’s was too hard and it would be wrong”. "

“The Learnersaurus Program is fantastic because it works! It was so easy for me and I’m not a good reader. It was so good to work with my son as he was having fun. He can now write and I can read his writing. This program has boosted his confidence and given him so many new opportunities.”

FAQs

  • Dyslexia is a neurological condition, genetic in origin. Approximately 20% of the population are dyslexic. Dyslexic children and adults generally struggle with spelling, reading and writing, however they are often very creative and intelligent. Start our Introduction to Dyslexia and Literacy Learning online course to learn more.

  • All of our resources have been developed with the dyslexic learner in mind, supporting the way that they learn best. The programs and products focus on keeping the learner engaged and achieving success. Our games, books, packs and stationery are all available in the online shop.

  • The Learnersaurus Literacy programs have been developed to provide an alternative approach to reading, writing and spelling for students who struggle to learn in the classroom or other interventions. Many other programs assume that certain processes and skills are automatic when in fact there are some essential skills that have been overlooked. After approximately 40 weeks of the Learnersaurus program, reading improves and literacy skills develop! The learner gains success and self confidence improves.

  • Our literacy programs take a fresh approach to assisting all learners. All Learnersaurus programs and products are based on well founded research and evidence based methodologies, designed to also assist dyslexic learners and those with learning difficulties.

    Designed for students who have not responded to classroom teaching and other interventions, our literacy programs and courses combine both online and offline learning tools.

    From a 10-week self-led course starter, to ongoing coaching over approximately 40 weeks, we offer a wide range of program delivery options to suit your needs and schedule.

  • All of our resources and materials are created using multisensory, structured language (MSL) principles, developed from highly credible, evidence-based research.

    Learnersaurus’ Founder, Leslie Keast-Patch has combined this research with her studies and experience as an educator over the last 35 years. The result being an alternative solution, with proven success, for students who struggle with literacy.

  • Student activities are a carefully developed combination of multisensory, structured, cumulative and explicit methods of literacy teaching and learning.

    To achieve ongoing success for the student, repetitive practise is essential. This aims to develop automaticity in letter/sound recognition, letter writing and to provide knowledge about the structure of our language.

  • The reality is, that in order to learn to read, a dyslexic learner will require some intensive, one-on-one, multisensory structured language instruction. By spending some time out of the classroom to develop these essential skills, they will be much happier and more confident going back into the classroom, once they have a grasp of the alphabet, they will be more prepared for reading, writing and spelling with the rest of the class.
