I do not have personal experience, but heard that this is best program money can buy, but at ~$20K it was not in the cards for us.

I would reach to ASDEC and see if they have any tutors available and do 2 hours of tutoring a day during the summer.

If you have not done a full educational testing, I would recommend getting that done first. Second, have you ruled out any hearing or eyesight problems?

In our case, the issue was partially due to hearing loss. Did not get diagnosed until I requested a hearing test. Child passed newborn hearing test, no concerns about hearing from school. I noticed child could not distinguish certain sounds.

OP here. Thank you. We have not explored LMB or ASDEC yet. Yes DC has been tested by a pediatric opthamologist (all good) and a pediatric audiologist (also fine) bc they also had severe articulation delays. speech therapy has helped tremendously and DC has nearly normal speech now but it’s taken 6 years of speech therapy since age 3-4 via Child Find in prek to get there. But the reading just isn’t clicking. They just can’t retain language and are still having a lot of trouble with letter reversals in very simple words like “bid”/“did” and “was/saw” “on/no”.  They can read those words consistently when when they are in the same sentence. Like “the dog was glad he saw a log.” The child is now 10 and would have trouble reading that sentence. After YEARS of IEP support, special private school, tutoring, and interventions. [/quote]
