       This book, in many ways, is a miracle. It presents a reading system that has done miraculous things for children. It introduces a new way to teach reading to people, young and old, who have not been able to learn to read using conventional methods. We wrote this book for all the children and all the parents who have shed so many tears over reading difficulties. This book will hopefully teach you the same method that we use at Neuro-Learning Systems. We call it "Neuro-Reading". (Pronounced ner row - reading)
          This book and the research and program that it presents, work best for children who have completed first grade. We are not exactly sure why this is true but we assume it has something to do with development or exposure to reading.
    You are most likely a parent looking for a solution to your child's reading problem. Our studies tell us that we are not the first place you have looked or the first book you have read. You have most likely investigated many avenues and probably not found any that were successful. You have likely spent many dollars and shed many tears. We know your pain and we understand where you are coming from................

Education Firm Finds Cure for Significant Public Health Problem.
   Washington, D.C. - In an address before a Senate Committee, Dr. G. Reid Lyon of the National Institutes of Health, declared "reading failure reflects not only an educational problem, but a significant public health problem." He further stated that "about 60% of our nation's children have significant difficulties learning to read. For 30% of these youngsters, reading is the most difficult task that they will have to master."
      While failure to learn to read is more likely among poor children, recent data derived from the National Assessment of Educational Progress reveals an alarming trend. In the State of California, 59% of fourth graders had little or no mastery of reading skills at the fourth grade level. A whopping 49% of these children came from homes where the parents had graduated from college. In fact, children of college educated parents scored lowest with respect to their national cohort. Reading failure cuts across all ethnic and socioeconomic variables. This problem is not new, actually little has changed in the last thirty years.
       A newly formed Maryland education firm, Neuro-Learning Systems has developed a method to teach all students how to read. Dr. David Furr, director of Neuro-Learning Systems says, "We have found a piece to the puzzle. Our clinical trials have shown that our system works and it works fast. We are able to advance children a full grade level in as few as 12 hours of teaching." Some students who were previously labeled "learning disabled" in the area of reading were able to shed that label after using this system!
      As might be imagined, this firm is swamped with requests for help. As of April, 2003 they have a waiting list of over 1000 students. To deal with the crush of cries for help, the firm has released a do it yourself book. Reading Clinic: Brain Research Applied to Reading, was written specifically to teach parents and teachers how to apply this system. The book is available at their web site, http://www.neurolearning.net or from Amazon.com or by calling 301-253-8979. Excerpts of the book are also on line at the above site. The information contained in the book was field tested to insure that parents could implement the program themselves. Neuro-Learning Systems can be reached at the above web site and telephone.

What parents are saying.

"This book saved my life! I tried Hooked on Phonics and the Phonics Game and many tutors. My son made a little progress on those programs but not much. This book showed me an easy way to help him. I really didn't think that it would but it did. My son moved up one grade level in one month! We are still moving up with no end in sight. I will never be able to repay you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
Mrs. Kate Johnson, Murfreesboro, N.C.

"I found your book to be fasinating but I really didn't think it would work. I tried to hide those feelings as the book suggested and approached this as a do or die effort. That is the way I felt since I had tried everything else. Even though this system made a lot of sense to me, I didn't believe it because of all the failed efforts I had in the past. Your system worked with Mike, he has done so wonderful. His teachers can't believe the difference in him. Not only has he changed concerning reading, he is now better in math and all other subjects. He is full of life and fun to be around - he was usually depressed or angry before this. How can I ever thank you?
Janie Miller, Atlanta, Ga.

"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it. Why couldn't this have been available five years ago. My son asked me why no one ever taught him this way before? Thank you so much.
Pam Willis, Gaithersburg, Md.
