READING , LEARNING, AND ATTENTION PROBLEMS do not have to limit a child’s future. We’ve got a way! Find out what the Irlen Method, using Irlen Colored Overlays, can do.

Research was initiated in the 1980’s to study methods of helping adults and children with unresolved learning and reading problems. This research revealed that certain individuals showed a marked improvement in their ability when reading material covered by a colored overlay. Helen Irlen developed a diagnostic assessment instrument to accurately determine those individuals who could benefit from reading using color. The Irlen Method provides a real solution that works simply and effectively. It can be easily incorporated into the educational setting and assessment battery.
