Beating Dyslexia for Your Bright Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner

Beating Dyslexia for Your Bright Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner

Beating Dyslexia is really hard.  This is especially true if your child is a Bright Right Brain Kinesthetic  Learner with Dyslexia.  Note, it is far easier for these kids to succeed if you:

    • Address the dyslexia and
    • Leverage experiential learning to capitalize on their strengths
    • Identify and address their executive function and/or visual processing issues that are often present
    • Ignite a love for learning
    • Help the parents to be the coach and advocate their child needs

Beating Dyslexia with an Integrated Solution

Lisa had spent over $30,000 on an excellent dyslexia treatment for her daughter.  The challenges included:

    • A year later her daughter’s reading comprehension was still at the 1st grade level as she was about to enter 5th grade
    • Homework was taking 2.5 hours a night for both her daughter and Lisa
    • Her daughter was a slow reader and avoided reading
    • Both mom and daughter were anxious, frustrated and exhausted

Lisa visited our website and then scheduled a no cost Beat Dyslexia conversation.  Our first 5 questions all resonated with Lisa:

    1. Does your child remember places visited, even from years ago?
    2. Does your child learn best when she sees and experiences information?
    3. Does your child skip words and/or lines when reading
    4. Is your child a lot smarter than present results would indicate?
    5. Would you like to know how your child can make significant gains in months?

Lisa asked if her prior investment in a dyslexia treatment had been in vain.  We assured her it was not.  She then asked, “How is it that you know my daughter so well, without even meeting her?”

We explained that we had been in a similar situation with our daughter. When we were told our daughter was not college material, her mom, Mira Halpert, who has her Masters in Education from the University of Michigan, became a Mom on a Mission.  With what has become known as the 3D Learner Program ®, our daughter improved her reading comprehension 4.2 grade levels in 7 months and went on her earn her Masters in Education From the University of Florida, become the teacher she never had, and is on track to get her Doctorate in Education.  

We also shared with Lisa that we had helped hundreds of dyslexic students succeed with our integrated experiential learning approach.

With our help, Lisa’s daughter was able to:

  • Improve her reading comprehension 4 grade levels within 6 months
  • Double her reading speed from 115 to 229 words per minute
  • Reduce her homework time from 2.5 to 1.25 hours per night.
  • Decrease the amount of time mom had to spend doing homework with her daughter from 2.5 hours to 15 minutes — saving over 11 hours a week
  • Lower the anxiety level and improve her daughter’s self-esteem.
  • Ignite a love for learning

Is Your Child a Bright Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner with Dyslexia?

We know that most smart struggling students with dyslexia:

  • Are Right-brain, visual or kinesthetic learners (hands-on) who can do far better with experiential learning that leverages their strengths
  • Have some combination of working memory, processing speed, visual processing, attention, and/or anxiety challenges
  • Often have a visual processing issue — where they read slowly and/or skip words and lines when reading.  Note, there are many articles that say that dyslexia is not caused by a visual processing issue.  That is true, but in our experience 
Over 70% of the students we have had with dyslexia had a visual processing issue. These are two very different conditions that often coexist in the same child.

Beating Dyslexia and Preparing Your Child for Future Success Can Best Be Done
by Leveraging Your Child’s Strengths and Identifying and Addressing Their Challenge

  • Are much smarter than present results would indicate

At 3D Learner, we have helped many students to:

  • Beat dyslexia improve their reading and reading comprehension 
  • Rediscover their natural love of learning
  • Improve their executive function skills, their visual processing  and their self-esteem
  • Improve their attention and emotional regulation
  • Achieve far greater success than their parents even thought possible

Our programs can help the right brain, visual learner or kinesthetic learner with dyslexia to make significant gains in months.  3D Learner’s comprehensive educational assessment reveals important issues that many other assessments miss. 


For instance, one parent had a recent psycho-educational test that indicated her daughter had dyslexia, attention, working memory and processing speed issues. After her daughter completed our assessment, she was surprised to learn that her daughter:

  1. Was a right brain, visual learner or kinesthetic learner 
  2. Was a lot smarter than present results would indicate
  3. Had a significant visual processing issue,  skipping words and lines when reading
  4. Struggled with reading comprehension and sequencing
  5. Had significant attention and emotional regulation issues
  6. Was very strong in 5 of the 11 skills we assessed — she had a great visual memory, was very creative and had a larger vocabulary than most
  7. But she had a real problem with the small words that often change the meaning of a sentence (i.e. words like the, but, what, if)

When Lisa’s mom saw the results, she asked “Why do schools not teach the way the right brain kinesthetic learner learns best?”  We explained that schools, like most learning centers, focus on a child’s weaknesses.

Schools often do not:

  • Leverage the student’s strengths and interests
  • Identify and address issues like working memory, visual processing, or processing speed
  • Ignite a love for learning, which is an essential part of the 3D Learner Experiential Learning Process.
  • Help parents to be the coach and advocate their child needs

Dyslexia Treatment for the Right-Brain Kinesthetic Learner

Dyslexia Treatment for the Right-Brain Kinesthetic Learner

(Located in Coral Springs — In Person and Zoom Training Available serving clients
from Parkland, Boca Raton, Coral Springs, South Florida and Nationwide)

Many students with dyslexia are a right brain kinesthetic learner.  We start with 7 key premises:

  • The right brain kinesthetic learner learns best when they see and experience information.  
  • A dyslexia treatment needs to address phonics and phonemic awareness
  • The right brain kinesthetic learner often has a visual processing issue.  They tend to have good peripheral vision, but their eyes often have difficulty converging.  This results in their skipping words and lines when reading.  We identify and address this issue, and work with optometrists.
  • Working memory, processing speed and/or attention issues are quite common in this population.  These are often the kids who can hyper focus on a video game and know the rules but have difficulty paying attention to that which is boring.  
  • Too often the right brain kinesthetic learner is defined by what he or she cannot do.  These kids are often much smarter than present results would indicate
  • Many of these kids fall further and further behind, but significant progress can be made in months
  • Informed, Empowered and Proactive Parents Make The Difference

A Mom on a Search for a Dyslexia Treatment That Works

A bright right brain kinesthetic learner had never come up in three years of her searching.

Mom was searching for a better dyslexia treatment.  Her dyslexic daughter was really struggling with:

  • Reading comprehension
  • Dyslexia
  • ADHD
  • Homework time and stress — where it was often taking 2.5 hours to complete in 4th grade
  • Self-esteem and anxiety

We asked mom what she had tried.  The first dyslexia treatment was done by a traditional dyslexia tutor.  The second was an investment of over $34,000.  The challenge was her daughter’s reading comprehension was still at the 1st grade level as she entered 5th grade.

She knew her daughter had dyslexia and ADHD but was unsure what would help.

When she read an internet article on the right brain learner with dyslexia she was intrigued.  Her daughter did learn best when she saw and experienced information.

It surprised her that most students with dyslexia are what we call right brain kinesthetic learners.

The terms right brain learner, kinesthetic learner and visual learner — are often used to describe the same child.

When she completed our visual learner screening tool, it was clear her daughter was a visual learner and would benefit from an approach that played to her strengths.

Mom was really surprised when she did our visual screening tool.  Her daughter’s answers showed she appeared to have a significant visual processing issue.

But mom was confused.  How could her daughter:

  • Be a right brain kinesthetic learner without anyone ever identifying it
  • Have what appeared to be a visual processing issues that no one ever identified
  • Be struggling for years, without the right help — despite a massive investment of time and money

Mom then scheduled a no cost Stress to Success Conversation with 3D Learner, and learned that …

A Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner with Dyslexia, Executive Function and/or a Visual Processing Issue – is More Common Than You Might Think

Mom asked if Dyslexia, Executive Function challenges, and Visual Processing issues were often present in a right brain kinesthetic learner. One or both are often present. The Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner often has executive function and
visual processing issues, and may have dyslexia

Mom’s concerns included:

  • Reading comprehension that was at the first-grade level — and her daughter was in 5th grade
  • Her daughter was a slow reader and avoided reading
  • Homework was taking 2.5 hours a night for both her daughter and mom
  • Anxiety was rising for both of them
  • There was no time to be a kid and enjoy life
The family was from Texas, and we are in Florida.

They came to Florida for a week and there were some clear issues and opportunities:

  • We confirmed that her daughter’s reading comprehension was at the first-grade level
  • Her reading speed was 115 words per minute, much slower than normal
  • Attention was an issue
  • The visual processing issue was real
  • Mom dad and their child were eager to succeed

Over the next 6 months, their daughter improved as follows:

  • Reading comprehension improved 4 grade levels 
  • Reading speed doubled
  • Homework time decreased as follows:
    • 50 percent for their daughter — saving over 6 hours a week
    • 2 hours a night for mom — saving 10 hours a week
  • Visual processing improved
  • Their daughter learned how to learn as a right brain kinesthetic learner

If You Suspect Your Child is a Bright Right Brain Kinesthetic Learner
