2. What can I expect to happen during the Assessment appointment?

3. Can you give a formal diagnosis of dyslexia?

4. Can adults achieve help from the Davis Program?  

• Yes!  The Davis Program can be facilitated to anyone ages 8 and up.  At Turning Point Learning Center, adults are welcome too!  Adults bring with them a high degree of motivation, which makes adult programs extremely rewarding for the facilitator and the adult client.
