A learning center or tutor will in essence just present the student with more academic instruction. If this were effective for the student, then the student would not be having learning problems at school, which is an academic setting. The Learning Link Programs train the brain to use the left and right hemispheres of the as a whole as well as correct eye muscle weaknesses through visual processing activities, auditory weaknesses, and eye/hand coordination problems. The Learning Link Reading Program is designed specifically for students who are having a difficult time reading and have failed to learn to do so with all other methods. For all of the programs, the learning problem is addressed, not just the symptoms.
