[quote=Anonymous]Our public charter school had someone trained in a LMB program and it is working for DC. It is less intensive (3 hours per week) than an LMB center and I do believe it is less effective as a result. (Supposedly because kids with dyslexia have poor working memory, they need lots of repetition in a short period of time in order to make progress). But this is still working for him for now....so I am holding out on sending him to an LMB center.

Our recent LMB evaluation was at a reduced winter rate. I found the evaluation results very useful even though we may not enroll our child in the center. For now, we are going to use the evaluation results with private tutors.

Another option I have considered is having a private tutor that we like trained in an LMB program. $800-$1000 for the training course is better than the tens of thousands of dollars for the weeks at the center. I am even considering getting the training myself and using it to supplement the work of an LMB trained tutor. That would increase the intensity, potentially to an hour a day with the program.

The LMB teachers are not particularly highly qualified; they complete about 2 weeks of training to learn the program they will deliver at the Center. Lots of the astronomical per hour fees goes to the Center and its profits rather than the tutors themselves. [/quote]
