We find that Zoom lessons are every bit as effective as in-person sessions. And, even kids with severe ADHD have done remarkably well in our Zoom lessons. That's because our specialized methods train executive functioning skills, integrated into every structured literacy lesson. Our students consistently develop improved: attention control, inhibitory control, goal-directed persistence, anticipation of outcomes, cognitive flexibility, planning & organization and working memory as a result of engaging in our program. Continuous visual feedback and daily communication with parents, directly after every lesson, are just two of our many integrated methods for achieving these results.
And, families love the convenience of being free to do lessons from anywhere in Naples or across the globe.

With Our Program, Your Child May Be Reading in a Matter of Weeks and Feeling More at Peace!

If your child is struggling with learning to read, you are in the right place. I am a presidentially recognized expert in transforming the lives of children with dyslexia and ADHD who are SEVERELY struggling with the  learning-to-read process. In my Reading Rescue Program, I use my own proven method, The Myers Method of structured literacy and executive function training Combined with the trauma recovery emphasis of my Restoring Flow Ministry. My students overcome their reading difficulties three times faster, on average, than with other individualized reading intervention programs. These results are backed by a decade of five-star Google reviews and parent testimonials on my Google business listing. If you've tried everything and nothing else has worked, you need Dyslexia Rescue and The Myers Method. Or, if you simply want to MOST effective, efficient solution to your child's reading problems, backed by a decade of success, you need Reading Rescue and The Myers Method. 

A project of Restoring Flow Ministries, we believe that by healing the trauma that often accompanies 'failure to read', a child is restored to the harmony of alignment with their Spirit. Thus, through a powerful academic approach, we are able to bring multidimensional healing of the child at the levels of mind, emotion, social, familial and ultimately, spiritual. This is our ministry.

Reviews

Some children SEEM to read but don’t comprehend.

If your child reads, but just doesn’t understand what they’re reading, consider this…

Let’s unpack the difference between true decoding and sight-word memorization and how each affects comprehension.

⸻

1. What happens when a reader memorizes words

If a child has not built decoding skills but instead relies on memorization, they often recognize words only as visual shapes (like logos). This can work for a limited number of familiar words, but it places heavy demands on working memory because:

• Each word must be retrieved as an isolated unit from memory.

• The brain has no system to generate the pronunciation or meaning if the word is unfamiliar.

• This strategy doesn’t scale to the tens of thousands of words needed for fluent reading.

As a result, comprehension suffers because working memory is being consumed by word recall — leaving less capacity for constructing meaning.

⸻

2. What happens when a reader decodes

When a reader uses phonics-based decoding:

• They break words into predictable sound-symbol patterns.

• The process becomes automatic with practice, shifting from conscious effort to fluent retrieval.

• Decoding connects words to the language system in the brain (phonology + meaning), allowing unknown words to be figured out on the spot.

Because decoding is systematic and generative, it reduces working memory load compared to pure memorization. This frees attention for comprehension.

⸻

3. Would switching from memorization to decoding improve comprehension?

Yes — teaching decoding almost always strengthens comprehension in the long run. Here’s why:

• Automatic word recognition: Once decoding skills are internalized, readers build a strong “orthographic lexicon” (sight vocabulary grounded in phonics), making word recognition faster and easier.

• Generative power: They can tackle unfamiliar words without guessing or rote memorization.

• Working memory freed: The brain doesn’t have to work so hard pulling up whole words from memory, leaving more capacity for building meaning.

• Language connections: Decoding strengthens the link between print, speech sounds, and meaning — which directly supports comprehension.

⸻

✅ So, in short: pulling words from memory by shape is inefficient and does interfere with comprehension. Shifting to decoding (even if it feels harder at first) ultimately builds automaticity, which improves comprehension because it frees up cognitive resources and connects words to the language system.

reading intervention- powerfully aligned with neuroscience

Fast, Effective Reading Intervention

Our students graduate with solid, grade-level reading skills in a matter of just four to eight months, on average. That means that years of reading deficiencies are eradicated in just a few short months. This rate far surpasses average results from school-based tier support programs and other popular private reading intervention programs. Our instruction is explicit, direct, structured, sequential, cumulative, multi sensory, individualized and trauma-informed. Our educational methods are informed by cognitive neuroscience to help strengthen core executive functioning weaknesses associated with dyslexia, SLD and ADHD including: cognitive flexibility, anticipation of outcomes, working memory, planning and organization, inhibitory control, attention control and goal-directed persistence. Our unique, expert approach combines elements of phonics, whole language and neuroscience to produce outstanding results while caring for the emotional needs of your child. *Legal note: Our founder does not have a degree in neuroscience but holds multiple degrees and certifications in education.

Why do I Need a Private Reading Assessment?

Do you know there is a problem, but the teacher says, "She's just young," or  'He'll catch up-don't worry," or "Give it more time"? 

You're not crazy! Trust your instincts. When a child is struggling with reading, the sooner they get the help they need, the better it is for them-academically and emotionally.

A private academic assessment and parent conference with an independent expert has several uses and benefits:

*Knowing what the foundational reading skills are empowers you to help your child. 

*Knowing where your child stands in relationship to acquiring those skills gives you a clear set of learning objectives. 

*Providing solid data from an independent source may help the school to determine need for school-based assessment and intervention sooner. 

Parent education

Why Participate in Our Parent Education Webinar?

Do you know your child struggles with reading but don't know how to help? In our parent education webinars, we explain what the foundational reading skills are and what can be done at home, in schools or in intervention programs to effectively hturn around your child's reading challenges. Sign up for a webinar today!

The Reading Rescue process is streamlined for efficiency

Initial Consultation

The initial, fifteen-minute consultation is an opportunity for us to meet on Zoom, go over basic information about your child's challenges, answer program questions and determine if a more in-depth consultation is in order. This consult is free of charge.

In-Depth Consultation

In this 45-minute Zoom meeting, we dive deeper into your child's  history, any previous interventions or specialized learning plans and your child's response to these. We will discuss your child's needs, review the family's experiences, and I'll tell you more about the program, my qualifications and approach. Finally, we will schedule an assessment, to gather specific data that is needed to guide intervention. 

Assessment

This two-hour meeting provides a full academic assessment of foundational reading skills and a parent-conference to explain and discuss results. Its purpose is to confirm suspected educational deficits and to guide intensive educational intervention instruction, meant to resolve reading difficulties. When the assessment is complete, I will meet with you to fully explain the results in terms that you will understand. Armed with specific knowledge of a child's educational gaps, parents are empowered to make solid decisions regarding next steps, whether those involve entering the program or taking the results back to the school to help guide next-steps there. 

Additionally, I may be able to comment on any behaviors observed that may indicate the possibility of specific learning disabilities such as dyslexia or ADHD. Please know that learning disabilities need not prevent a child from learning to read. With specialized help, it is virtually always possible. 

*Please note that this is an academic assessment, not a neurological exam and does not diagnose learning disabilities. Learning disabilities are diagnosed medically and must be done by a specialized psychologist or neuropsychologist. Assessments are done via Zoom or may be provided in-person in the Scottsdale/ Fountain Hills, AZ area. 

Parent Education

After your child's assessment is complete, you may be invited to participate in our two-hour parent education training via Zoom. Here, you will learn about foundational reading skills development. This knowledge empowers you to either help your child at home, advocate in an informed way with your child's school or choose to enter the full Reading Rescue program. 

Full Program Daily Lessons

Subject to availability, you may be invited to enter into the Reading Rescue full intervention program. In this program, your child will receive individualized, intensive reading intervention lessons four days per week for 45 minutes each with myself. This is 1:1 instruction meant to fast-track your child's reading acquisition. My students make a year's worth of reading acquisition progress for every one to two months in my program, on average. An average program lasts 4-8 months, depending upon the needs of the individual child.
