“Our son Tyler was diagnosed with severe dyslexia in 2nd grade. He was reading at a kindergarten level and had completely lost confidence in himself. After two years with the Barton System, he’s now reading at grade level and has discovered a love for science fiction novels. The transformation has been nothing short of miraculous. Tyler went from crying over homework to asking for extra reading time. The systematic approach gave him the tools he needed to succeed, and the caring tutors gave him back his confidence.”

The Johnson Family
Family Success Story
Michigan
“When our daughter Maria was struggling in 3rd grade, we tried everything – extra help at school, private tutoring, even changing schools. Nothing worked until we found the Barton System. The multisensory approach was exactly what she needed. Within six months, she had caught up to her peers. Within a year, she was reading above grade level. Now in 8th grade, she’s in advanced English classes and wants to be a writer. The Barton System didn’t just teach her to read – it gave her a future.”

The Garcia Family
Family Success Story
California
“Our twin boys both struggled with reading, but in different ways. The Barton System was able to meet each of their unique needs through individualized instruction. One son needed more work with phonemic awareness, while the other struggled with fluency. Their certified tutor adapted the program for each child. Both boys are now confident readers who love books. The program’s flexibility and the tutor’s expertise made all the difference in our family’s reading journey.”
