How Fast ForWord Helps Reading and Learning

Fast ForWord is a suite of software programs. The first two programs strengthen underlying cognitive skills that are the key to most reading difficulties and many attention and language-based learning issues. These are followed by a series of grade-appropriate reading programs. Most students do 3-4 programs over 4-6 months.
Fast ForWord Programs In Detail

Weak auditory processing creates a muddiness in the way children hear sounds, making sounding out, decoding, difficult. This leads to reading comprehension problems later on as weak decoding skills forces the student to multi-task -- to concentrate on decoding as well as on comprehension. Auditory processing issues also often create difficulties keeping up in class and/or makes it exhausting to take it all in, creating attention stamina and learning efficiency issues.

Fast ForWord's effectiveness in improving these processing skills explains its longevity as a go to resource for so many schools and clinicians and its growing popularity among parents as the best first step to meeting their child's learning needs.
