TESTIMONY OF THE AUTHOR :

 

In my childhood, I remember to have found it difficult to learn to read. I did not like to read. As a visual type of child, I needed to "SEE IT" for easier LEARNING. Given that reading was  so difficult for me, I was able to understand the small difficulties some children are challenged with and I knew intuitively what they would need to retain what they were being taught. I remember having stimulated my memory throughout my primary school years by small drawings that I had invented.

"It is easy to write and read with Edu Jappy a solution for children with learning 
difficulties"

So I then decided to bring to the children of today the tricks and lessons that I missed so much as a young girl in school. In the following paragraphs, I will tell you what is the genesis of this teaching and learning method designed specifically for children whose academic progress is strewn with problems reading and writting, Dyslexia and other learning difficulties. Over the last 2 years I was given the opportunity to work with children in regular classes as those from English-speaking families who attend French schools of the Ontario. The case study has shown remarkable results and the students were not only improving their reading and writting skills but were reaching and surpassing the average level of the other other classmates.

 

During my first year working as a teacher assistant, had given me a young boy once thought incapable of learning to read. We had thought I should keep for many years. To the surprise of all, having learned this method of reading, that little was able to follow the regular class the following year without any support from me, he read very well. Subsequently, encouraged by the contacts of the educational environment, I continued to put all my energy into improving my method: J'APPRENDS WELL WITH YOU love children, character trait that I hold my father.
