Who can Fast ForWord help?

 

Fast ForWord software builds brain fitness through individualized, adaptive computer exercises that develop the cognitive skills of memory, attention, processing and sequencing necessary for reading and learning for children and adults who are faced with these challenges:

 

Reading Difficulty

Slow or labored reading? Weak reading comprehension? Reading resistance? Fast ForWord builds reading skills from the fundamentals up by first targeting the common underlying causes of difficulty followed by exercises to build fluency, spelling and reading comprehension.

 

Learning Difficulty

Sometimes the difficulties are more generalized and harder to determine. A learning disability is often considered a severe difficulty, but it can also be described as a gap, a difference in achievement in one area of academics versus another. Depending on the student's profile, the Fast ForWord Program maybe be able to help, or we may be able to offer alternatives

 

Auditory Processing Disorder

Auditory processing disorder symptoms include difficulty following directions, inattentiveness, learning or reading difficulties. The Fast ForWord Program tackles auditory processing difficulties directly with exercises that build listening skills -- processing speed and accuracy, memory and attention stamina -- and then reading skills if required.

 

Dyslexia

Almost all dyslexia is caused by an underlying language, memory or processing difficulty. The Fast ForWord Program works directly on these cognitive skill gaps and then rebuilds reading fluency and comprehension skills.

 

Autism

The Fast ForWord Program, proven effective in building reading and learning skills, is one of the fastest growing treatments for autism in North America today. Its adaptive technology allows students to progress at their own pace with the intensity required to rewire learning.

 

ADD/ADHD

Many focus issues are caused by inefficient processing that is at best, exhausting, and at worst, an impediment to accurate listening and reading. Fast ForWord build processing skills to improve attention stamina.

 

Acquired Brain Injury

The brain is an amazing, self-organizing and self-healing organ that is capable of great change. Fast ForWord has adaptive intensity that makes it well suited to rebuilding cognitive function in a wide range of stroke, accident, meningitis and other cases.
