I first noticed my daughter struggle with learning to read in Kindergarten but didn't think much of it. Then in 1st grade, the school IEP administrator and her teacher wanted me to come in for a meeting because they felt like Ava needed some extra help. After starting the IEP program at school my daughter was still struggling to progress. I quickly...
Ryker started this journey with the dyslexia center of Utah when he was in 2nd grade. He is now in 7th grade. We took a break during covid for online learning which was very difficult for Ryker. After Covid, we jumped right back
School has taken on a COMPLETELY different look for Hudson from before he started his incredible life changing journey with DCU...and now!! We started seeing noticeable changes in Hudsons desire to be at school
For the last 3 years we've been struggling to find a solution that could help Wyatt develop the skills needed to advance in school. He was struggling with reading, handwriting, comprehension and attention span. We knew he was dyslexia based on a clinical evaluation. We tried several other programs, spent thousands of dollars, and saw no movement in...

By an absolute miracle and blessing, we were led to find the Dyslexia Center of Utah for our daughter Ava. In preschool, we noticed that she was not catching onto the same reading program that two of our other children had been through. She wasn’t able to identify all the letters and their sounds. Even after telling her, she was quickly forgetful...
I knew something was different about the way Makay was reading since he was 4 years old. We both struggled. I asked questions about his challenges but I didn’t ask the right questions to find help until he was in 4th grade. By then I thought it was too late to fill in the many holes in his literacy. We were both willing to do whatever it took to t...
I’m so proud of this kid!! He is literally one of the smartest kids I know, he can memorize his playbook on sight, works hard to get good grades, is a math wiz and he is dyslexic! Most kids would give up, not him! I can’t thank @dyslexiacenterofutah enough for helping him over the years. We started this journey in the 2nd grade, and he’s gone here...
