About this ebook

 Train the Brain to Hear was written by a parent and teacher for
parents and teachers. The book provides explanations of the learning
disabilities dysgraphia, dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyslexia and auditory
processing disorder as well as the common areas that are affected by
learning disabilities including short term memory, executive function
and comprehension. The treatment program utilizes brain training and
neuroplasticity techniques to encourage development of the connections
in the brain that strengthen these skills. The techniques can also be
used to work with those who have been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, traumatic
brain injury or stroke.


One of the most difficult things for a parent to hear is that there is
something wrong with a child and that there is nothing that can be done
to help him. That is what author Jennifer Holland and her husband
Charles were told in 2001 when their oldest son was diagnosed with
auditory processing disorder. This diagnosis was repeated in 2010 when
their second son was diagnosed and again in 2013 when the diagnosis was
confirmed in their fourth child. In Charles and Jennifer’s family,
auditory processing disorder is a genetic condition inherited from
Charles.


Jennifer made it her mission to figure out how to help her own children
succeed in the classroom and in life. This program will allow you to
treat those who are learning disabled from the preschool and early
reader age level through adulthood and understand and address many of
the most common difficulties they face in everyday life.


This book was written and the program developed for every parent who has
been told there was nothing that could be done for their child and for
every parent/teacher who knows more can be.
