8 months of structured literacy — just 2x per week
Here’s what changed in 8 months — 2 sessions per week.
Student presented with dyslexia plus significant phonological & orthographic processing difficulties. Word recognition, reading, and spelling were all functioning at a Kindergarten level — entering 3rd grade.
| Area / Subtest | Baseline | 8-Month Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Word Recognition | K | 4 ↑Above Grade Level |
| Oral Reading | K | 4 ↑Above Grade Level |
| Silent Reading Comp. | K | 5 ↑Above Grade Level |
| Spelling | K | 3 ↑At Grade Level |
| Word Meaning | 1 | 6 ↑Above Grade Level |
Why it works: The S.E.L.F. Framework treats reading, writing, and language as one integrated system — not isolated skills. When students with dyslexia are taught the way their brains learn, they grow.
