Does your child remember details from movies, even from years ago?

Does your child like Legos and or Kinex?

Does your child learn best when they see and experience information?

If this describes your child, there is a good chance they are a right-brained learner.  Five key points about right-brained learners

-  Based on a study by an Dr. Linda Silverman from the Gifted Development Center -- 62% of the students today are what she labels visual-spatial learners.  We call these students right-brained learners, because they use the creative, problem solving and visually strong part of their brain to learn best

Right-brained learners do far better with right-brained programs.  Dyslexia programs tend to be left-brained programs that are logical, sequential, auditory and boring.  A

-  Right-brained learners will do their best when they are engaged in the process

-  Right-brained learners often have skip words and lines when reading, reverse numbers and letters and have attention challenges

-  Right-brained learners get the best help when their parents realized they are right-brained learners and take them to right-brained-programs and to professionals who understand them

My name is Mira Halpert.  I have a Master’s Degree in Education from the University of Michigan.  I have four great kids.  Two of them excelled in school; the other two were equally bright, but they struggled with reading comprehension.

For 7 years we struggled.  Psychologists used labels like Dyslexia, a Learning Disability and ADHD.  They recommended tutors, phonics-based programs and learning centers.


None of them worked well.  My husband Mark and I were both incredibly frustrated.

In 8th grade, my daughter Julie was told she was not college material.  I became

A mom on a mission!!!

I was not interested in labels; my focus was on how Julie could succeed.

Then I discovered she learned differently. She learns best when she sees and experiences information -- like 62% of the kids in school today. 

Julie is a right-brained learner, my son Michael is a right-braiend learner, and I am a right-brained learner.  What makes life difficult for right-brained learners is that we live in a left-brained world.

With what has become known as the 3D Learner Program ®, Julie improved her reading comprehension 4.2 grade levels in 7 months. (Teachers said it could not be done!) Since 1997, we have helped thousands of students and their parents succeed.
What drives me is:

-       The statistics are staggering about how many smart kids continue to struggle, often through high school and beyond.

        -    Almost 90% of the 1st graders with a word identification issue are still poor readers in 4th grade.

        -   Over 70% of the 3rd graders with a reading disability will still have a reading disability in 12th grade. These statistics are ALARMING and schools are fundamentally not winning this battle!

        -   For many students their reading comprehension levels off in 5th and 6th grades and they start to fall 3, 4, 5 and even more years below grade level


-       I have seen these smart struggling kids in families of famous people, incredibly successful entrepreneurs, architects, pilots and other occupations dominated by visual and creative people. 

Right-brained learners are also identified with  creative moms and those children that are adopted and  in foster care.

-       The learning differences and the related attention, tracking and anxiety issues are often present

-       Once a committed parent is informed, empowered and proactive in helping their right-brained learner, the sky is the limit

The 3D Learner Program (R) I designed is for right-brained learners.
