Coach

1.Most people have no idea why they cannot read better. They need someone to help them initially with pattern recognition.
2.Even if they have an idea, or a diagnosis, for what is wrong with them, their analysis is often only partly correct.

3. And even if they can describe issues, they almost always have no idea what specifically to do to improve.

4. But even if they do have a rough idea of what to do to improve, they have no idea whether they are doing the "program" correctly.

5. In addition, they have no idea how to fine-tune or "tweak" the presentation of material to match their exact learning needs.

6. Most people have a combination of issues, each of which is correctable, but without being able to differentiate these issues, and attack each problem, they experience a sense of helplessness, frustration and reading anxiety, which in itself often becomes the main problem.

7. Once people start to improve, they need help to know how to overcome problems and when they are ready to advance. In addition, they often need affirmation that they are on the right path. Many people actually get frustrated because they are ready to improve and nobody is there to tell them how.

8. A reading coach can help an individual immediately start with the approach that person needs. There are at least 40 different common reading problems. At any one time an individual only needs to focus on one or two solutions.

9. Most people have never experienced a philosophy for rapid change of personal attitude and skill level, which is based in pragmatic analysis by the clients of what works well for them.

10. Most people have no idea how much they can improve in the first two hours of help, if this help is done correctly. The proper approach involves initial evaluation and training, then setting up and beginning independent practice, combined with periodic consultation as needed. Besides being the right approach, this is by far the quickest and cheapest approach for real help.

11. Many people have a history of failure in numerous earlier attempts on their part to improve their reading. As a result, they are often quite skeptical and wary of anything new. This attitude is usually very understandable, but it is also limiting. This obstacle usually disappears with initial consultation.
12. Some people have a need to be totally in charge of all steps of each new activity. While this attitude often proceeds from a desire to protect another, it frequently prevents open mindedness, especially if new concepts are involved that are not intuitive. This obstacle usually disappears with initial consultation.
