What is the Raviv Method?
Raviv is becoming known as one of the most exciting approaches to helping children and adults overcome learning difficulties.
Overcoming learning difficulties in 4-6 months
- Dyslexia (reading)
- Dyspraxia (motor skills)
- Dysgraphia (writing)
- Dyscalculia (maths)
- Stress Management (exams)
- Short and Long Term Memory
- Attention Deficit (Hyperactive) Disorder (AD(H)D)
Key features
- Develops new basis for learning rather than teaching coping techniques
- Focused and swift
- Typically less than 6 months hence very cost-effective
- Improvement continues after completion of programme
- Exercises are simple and fun
- 20 minutes homework can be done watching TV
Improvements can be found in other areas of life
Raviv is a focused, rapid intervention programme for correcting learning and attention difficulties suitable for children and adults.
Raviv helps to develop new structures in the brain and therefore provides a basis for improved learning, free from the difficulties previously experienced.
Weekly one–hour sessions are tailored to suit each person’s specific needs.
The client will build on the improvements in the areas of difficulty that will then help develop self-confidence and a renewed sense of self-esteem.
The programme, based on movement, is multi-sensory and importantly fun too.
A key part of the success of the programme is the twenty minutes exercise that the Practitioner gives and which must be done at home every day.
Children soon embrace the opportunity to take responsibility for their daily exercise routine.
Adults find that the exercise routine soon becomes a daily habit… twenty minutes of “me” time.
How does the brain learn to read?
Learning is based on reading. Reading is an artificial process and was never part of the brain’s original design.
The past twenty years have shed light on how the brain works. Research and development in areas of cognitive and neurological science have helped our understanding of how the connection between the brain’s developments, structures and workings are related to learning and attention difficulties. It has been found that individuals with learning difficulties have impairments in the neural circuits in the brain that are responsible for learning.
The Method consists of five jointly implemented processes:
- Creates specific neural structure required for learning
- Focused strategies for controlling brain activity for attention and concentration
- Trains the brain to control two-dimensional perception: reading and maths
- Trains the brain in phonological skills
- Learning and memory strategies
