Student Journeys

This website has text to speech.

Every student has a story. Some come to us feeling discouraged, others frustrated, and many unsure if they’ll ever be able to read and write with confidence.

With patience, encouragement, and the Orton-Gillingham Approach, our students discover they can learn and they thrive.

Here are just a few of their inspiring journeys.

From Struggles to Success

Video 1: “It Turned My Disadvantage Into an Advantage”

In this video, Norah shares the challenges of dyslexia and the incredible progress she made once she began receiving the right kind of support. It’s a reminder that no matter how tough things may feel, there is hope and help available.

Video 2: “Now I Love Reading”

This story highlights how students with dyslexia learn differently and how Structured Literacy unlocks their potential. Aiden’s confidence grew when reading, spelling, and comprehension finally made sense.

Video 3: “Finding Hope and Help Through ETC”


In this heartfelt video, Nichole, a devoted parent, shares her family’s journey of discovering Educational Therapy Center. When her son struggled with reading and faced discouragement at school, Nichole trusted her instincts and sought answers.

Through ETC’s expert guidance and compassionate approach, she watched her children’s confidence and skills grow in ways she never imagined. Her story is a touching reminder that with the right support, every child can thrive and every parent can find hope.

What We See Every Day

  • Students who once dreaded reading begin to pick up books with excitement

  • Children who felt “behind” start raising their hands in class

  • Teens who thought they weren’t smart realize they just learn in a different way

With one-on-one tutoring, encouragement, and proven teaching methods, our students grow into confident, independent learners.

Student Journeys Matter

Hearing real stories gives families hope. You may see your own child in these experiences, the struggles, the fears, and ultimately, the breakthroughs.

At ETC, we believe every student deserves the chance to write their own success story.
