Professional Dyslexia Intervention in Centurion & Middelburg
If your child faces reading or spelling difficulties, our tailored dyslexia intervention programs can help them not just cope, but thrive. Using Davis Dyslexia Correction methods, this is not “extra tuition” - it’s a specialized approach built for how dyslexic learners think.
We provide dedicated dyslexia support in Centurion and Middelburg, offering structured reading intervention for dyslexia that strengthens decoding, fluency and confidence.
Who might benefit
You might consider this if your child:
- Reads slowly, skips or guesses words
- Spells inconsistently or struggles with phonics
- Avoids writing or becomes frustrated easily
- Shows signs of attention issues alongside reading struggles
- Is bright, but underperforms in school
If you haven’t yet confirmed dyslexia, consider starting with a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment to identify the specific learning profile.
Many children with dyslexia have creativity, curiosity, and strengths that get blocked by language struggles. The program helps free those strengths.
What we do
- Initial assessment: We pinpoint exactly how dyslexia presents in your child.
- Personalised sessions: One-on-one work using multi-sensory techniques. We teach how to recognise symbols confidently, improve concentration, and strengthen reading strategies.
- Parent involvement: You’ll get guidance about how best to support reading at home, not with more overwhelm, but meaningful, manageable practices.
- Tailored pace: Some children advance in weeks, others may take months. We progress at your child’s comfort level.
What changes you’ll see
- Improved fluency and confidence when reading
- More consistent and accurate spelling
- Less tension over homework time
- Shift in mindset: your child may begin to accept “I can learn this” rather than “I’m just bad at reading”
- School environments that better understand and support their needs
For children who also experience anxiety or emotional challenges related to reading struggles, individual play therapy can provide additional support.
Because Ronita studied dyslexia methods in the UK and is well-versed in South African exam concession criteria, our intervention is uniquely positioned to help learners in this local context.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Davis Dyslexia Correction method?
The Davis method is a holistic, drug-free approach developed by Ron Davis that addresses the root causes of dyslexia. Rather than focusing solely on phonics drills, it teaches learners to control perception, manage disorientation, and master symbol recognition. It’s especially effective for visual-spatial learners and has been successfully used worldwide.
How long does the dyslexia intervention program take?
Program length varies by individual needs. Intensive programs may run 5 days consecutively, while others spread sessions over several weeks or months. Most children see meaningful improvements in 3-6 months. We progress at your child’s pace, ensuring strategies are solid before moving forward.
What age is best to start dyslexia intervention?
We can work with learners from age 6/7 onwards (typically Grade 1+) when reading patterns are established. Earlier intervention generally leads to faster progress, but it’s never too late. We’ve successfully helped high school learners and even adults.
Will this help with CAPS curriculum requirements?
Yes. Our intervention aligns with South African CAPS curriculum expectations. We work on phonics, comprehension, spelling, and writing skills needed for school success. Many children catch up to grade level or show significant improvement in their school reports after intervention.
Can my child get exam concessions for dyslexia?
Yes. If your child has a formal dyslexia diagnosis (via psychoeducational assessment), they may qualify for exam concessions including extra time, use of a reader or scribe, or assistive technology for NSC, IEB, or Cambridge exams. We can guide you through the application process and provide supporting documentation.
How much does dyslexia intervention cost?
Costs depend on the program format and duration. Intensive programs may have package pricing. Contact us for a detailed quote based on your child’s specific needs and recommended program structure.
Is medical aid coverage available?
Some medical aids cover dyslexia intervention under Educational Psychology or Speech Therapy benefits. Coverage varies significantly by scheme and plan. We provide invoices for submission. Check your medical aid’s policy on learning support interventions.
Do you work with schools?
Yes. We can communicate with teachers, provide school-based recommendations, and help implement support strategies in the classroom. Many South African schools are increasingly dyslexia-aware, and we can guide them on best practices to support your child.
