Steven Had Learning Problems

Stephen Schuetz had what was described as a “learning problem.” His folks found a method called The Neurodevelopmental Approach which is locally provided by Jan Bedell, Certified Neuro-Educational Specialist. Ms Bedell is founder of Little Giant Steps. She left her teaching career when she discovered how miraculous this approach worked with her mentally challenged daughter. She’s also discovered how it works with those who are typical or gifted. After 20 years of serving families, successes with kids who struggle with learning, has been the fuel by which she’s continued to teach parents how to change their kid’s lives for the better. Life is more than academics, which is generally the focus of The Neurodevelopmental Approach. Steven has been delighted with a by-product of getting more efficiently “wired!” (which includes doing activities that increase the neuro-pathways in the brain and results in higher neuro-efficiency and faster communication between the brain and body.) By the way, his academics have sky-rocketed, too! Here’s his story:

Life Can Be More Than Just Improved Academics

“I can’t believe how much this program has helped me. It changed my life! Immediately in the sports I can see the ball traveling at 65-70 mph coming straight at me and I can hit it. My stats were 21 at bat and 15 hits and that is incredible for me. I think I was one of the best on the team. I went from the bottom of the batting order to close to the top!” Steven Schuetz, age 14.

Joanna’s Journey To Success

Three and one half years ago, our youngest daughter, Joanna, was struggling socially, academically, and relationally. After 14 months on Little Giant Steps program she had improved in all academic areas; 2 grade levels math and more than 5 grade levels in Word Recognition and Reading Comprehension. She now has been off the LGS program for two years, and last week we had her evaluated again to fine tune her brain for rapid decision making needed for her hobby—scuba diving & underwater rescue. During these past 2 years she has gained more than 3 and ½ grade levels in math and maxed out reading comprehension. Joanna is rapidly finishing high school with the most dramatic improvement in math. Her brain is still sharp!

30 short pages boldly declare a statement of truth that can ignite a revolution against historical �mud slinging� and set a young generation free of dyslexia. Truth has the power to set folks free. Knowing the truth about the root causes of dyslexia can empower pioneers to blaze a trail through traditional mindsets and perhaps stop an epidemic of learning disabilities that currently claims the lives of one in five children. Does anyone care about these disheartened children? Will anyone help their struggling families? Is anyone brave enough to champion a life-saving effort? Is anyone willing to sing a new freedom song? Jan Bedell, mother of a mentally challenged young adult, has sacrificially labored for two decades � 16 years to work with dyslexic children. The neurodevelopmental approach has successfully addressed root causes of dyslexia and set them free of debilitating symptoms. Dyslexia is no longer a death sentence. There is hope! Jan Bedell is helping families. Jan Bedell is singing a freedom song! This spring Jan Bedell is writing her final paper to obtain a Master�s in Special Education Degree from Texas Tech University. The abstract is entitled, �Dyslexia: The Neurodevelopmental Approach.� Results from her volumes of research on dyslexia could only be summarized in 37 short pages for her professor. The remaining details must wait for publishing in a book. We applaud your pioneering efforts, Jan Bedell! Thank you for dedicating your professional life to the study of the root causes of dyslexia, ADD and other learning disabilities. Thousands of families have been helped and are deeply grateful for your neurodevelopmental solutions. Sing on! Sing loud! Sing strong a Freedom Song!
