Reading Out Loud
Read better than the class average.
Reading Out Loud is as easy for beginners and those with learning difficulties as it is for ordinary students who want to improve their reading.
It's PRESSURE FREE which relaxes the student allowing him to listen and repeat correctly the sounds of the word and the all-important, SENTENCE FLOW. As his brain hears himself read properly, probably for the first time, it makes an internal match of the sounds with the symbols (written words). A pattern emerges in the students head and when the words reappear next time the brain produces the correct sound and that all important sentence flow. The process operates at a subconscious level and is called Ontogenesis.
Repeat Reading is based on how we learn to SPEAK. Deaf people can't speak properly, not because of damaged vocal chords, but because they can't hear themselves and therefore can't moderate their tone of voice.
The technique has been adapted by many Foreign Language teachers, especially in England, to help students with pronunciation and sentence flow.
“As soon as we started the Edinburgh Techniques we could see a sudden change in Mario. He was much more confident and seemed to enjoy life much more than before. He now has the tools to achieve what he wants. Teachers in school are surprised at his improvements. He achieved 3 awards this month where before he only had 1 in the last 6 months, when he said; ‘' Thanks for saving my life'' at the end of the last session, he wasn't kidding. Thank you so much”
– Mrs Schwarz, London
“The Edinburgh Techniques taught Stephen more in 5 weeks than he learned in remedial classes in 5 years.”
– Mrs Shabbir, West Lothian
