I have a success story, and we’ve only been doing BIT for 2 weeks. My son is in 7.5 and in beginning swimming lessons since last April. He can do the kicking, but it has looked “awkward” and like he has to move his whole body to make his legs alternate kicking. Even his shoulders and head would go back and forth. Last week, after a week of the exercises, he was not moving his body near as much and his kicking looked significantly smoother and more natural!     -Marika

“Recently, our IEP team lead told me that we would need to work next on our son knowing the sounds of each letter per the document. When she went to work with him on it the next time she saw him, she couldn’t believe how well he knew them already. I was happy to tell her it’s because we’ve been doing writing 8’s for so long (8 months). Cross another goal off the IEP document! I love that we achieved that goal as a “side benefit” while working through BIT!” –Jennifer R

I’m 77 years old, am doing BIT with my 11 year old grandson and we’re both noticing huge improvements. The two biggest things for me are the improvement of my memory and balance. I also taught my husband the program….just so I’d know how to use the program. He’s had two strokes and two TIAs and his coordination , tracking speed and concentration were greatly improved. I believe it’s a program that could benefit a great many seniors! Darlene

My son (8) had some dyslexia issues. He started out the school year at a pre-primer level. He just finished the Phonics book today and tested at a 4th grade level!!! He’s so excited!! He can read almost all his school instructions now!      -Ann

Oh MY!!!!! First off, I’m working with a child who is missing the left half her brain. I wasn’t sure how well this program would work. She has a severe auditory block. Couldn’t repeat a 4-word sentence. Her reading comprehension was non-existent. We’ve been doing the program about 3 weeks. At first, she couldn’t do a single ear-eight, especially on her right side. Today, she did the whole regime on both sides. Then, as we read, she was able to tell me what she was reading and make extensions to other things she knows. I am in tears!

A year ago, my daughter could not consistently add 2 + 3. We got her going on the brain integration therapy and using the math and reading techniques Dianne suggested. This afternoon while we were waiting for sister to get out of physical therapy, we were playing a card game. At the end of the game, I had 18 cards and she had 28. She was talking to one of the volunteers about it and he asked her how many cards there were. In her head, she figured out that she had to add the two numbers, and she added them correctly.

 I met you at the HEAV convention last year. Thank you for making sense of my struggle in teaching my daughter! She is presently in fourth grade, but I realized from you that she was stuck at about a 1.5 grade level. She is now (after 7 months with the “Right Brain Phonics”)reading at about a third grade level. We still have a ways to go, but I was thrilled at how quickly she has been moving up. In her “free time” I have spied her picking up Dr. Seuss books and reading them to the cat…reading with confidence! – Beth

This week has been a week of great progress that I know you will all understand. My son just turned 7. In September, he could not recall most letters of the alphabet or their sounds. He is great at memorizing as he has the BOB books memorized however, he could not recall alphabet names or sounds. We have been doing Brain Integration Therapy from the beginning, so we are on the writing gate and my son can now recall the letter name of every letter of the alphabet, recall every sound and can put 3 letter sounds together to form words. HE IS READING!! I am so happy for my little guy.

Some amazing news that had me chocked up and tears filled my eyes, yesterday after we finished reading for 10 min my son asked if he could continue to read, never has that happened- I think he is beginning to enjoy reading!! Thank you Dianne for your phonics program and “boring little books” that really do work!

So today is Monday… They are always hard for us…. The school day started out rough but ended sooo Great!!!! As many of you know S has a lot of dyslexic issues…. We have finished all the brain training, still working on Right Brain Phonics. October 2015 we started the program and she struggled to read Preprimer words….. Today she took the reading placement test and she read on 2nd grade level!! She has went up 4 levels in 15 months!!! PRAISE JESUS!!! As I am typing this she is writing her pin pal with very little help!!! Folks this is God at work!! I really appreciate all that Dianne Craft has done for our family! Quick response to my emails and phone calls when it looked hopeless her and her staff gave me so much support. Thank you!! PRAISE JESUS for getting us over the hump! We still have a hill to climb but it doesn’t feel as steep
