My daughter has complex learning needs. She is adopted and diagnosed with PTSD (trauma) and has a…read morenumber of challenges that make learning and focus for her very difficult. As she was to enter Grade 3 she was still not able to read. Her grade 1 & 2 teacher informed us repeatedly that they were unable to get her to focus on learning for more than only 5-10 minutes PER DAY during class and kept pushing ADHD meds as the answer. She is bright, engaging, she is creative, funny, and a great problem solver, very social. She also was diagnosed with a mild cognitive delay and dyslexic making learning difficult. She also presented with an Auditory Processing Delay. Oxford Learning in Crowfoot Calgary accepted her in on a trial basis, not being sure that she would be able to succeed in their program. They asked us not to put her on any ADHD meds but to allow to be alert for her learning with them. The managers and the teachers were nothing short of incredible. My daughter took to them very quickly as they were very careful with her and took their time to help her feel safe and secure in the space and with them. Her program was carefully and thoughtfully put together before we started. Now, after not even one year, our girl has progressed more than one year in her reading skills. She is confident, enjoys Oxford, looks forward to going which again is a miracle. Our girl often will askus not to make her go to school, but 3 times per week she goes to Oxford Learning and they have been able to maintain her focus for 45 minutes to an hour - WITHOUT ADHD meds. And, to add to that, they are providing one-on-one teaching in a quiet environment. My daughter is hyper vigilant and sensitive to all stimuli : visual, auditory, and even the feelings of the people in the room : much to filter for a small child trying to focus on learning. This environment works very well for her. Our daughter was assessed at a Kindergarten level of reading when she started with Oxford, and is presently reading at an end Grade 1 level, one year later. This means that she progressed at a regular rate of learning : one year of learning progression during one year - my girl can learn! She is confident, loves to read books, loves to read signs and labels out in the world as she goes along. This place has been our miracle when we had no other place to go for help and believe me when I say that we had looked at many other options, including private schools, and other possibilities for her. This is a Cognitive system of learning that a traumatized brain needs in order for the learning to make sense. And this is also what sets Oxford Learning apart - the system of learning is Cognitive learning. My girl cannot retain information, again consistent with a traumatized brain. Traditional learning relies on memory and information retention. Oxford takes a different approach and it works.
