We preface this testimony with some remarks on the problems when A.L. came to see us for the first time, a young child with a good posture and a good ear who had been accepted at Sandroyd an English prep school. After a promising start he seemed no longer be able to express his potential and his performance was declining to such an extent that his headmaster was even wondering if he had a future in the school.
The listening test we carried out showed a lack of auditive laterality which was influencing concentration, independence, awareness and especially the notion of time which was practically absent. The listening curves were, however, very good permitting us to be confident as to the results, despite a certain reserve from different masters in charge who surely saw in the problems a little bit more than ‘just’ a listening problem. Following the sessions the results nevertheless didn’t fail to come fast. His school results improved and continued to rise following the sessions as he continued certain daily exercises of dextralization whilst reading out loud. A.L. has successfully finished his time at Sandroyd, received an offer from Eton, and will be continuing at the British School of Paris in Croissy.
Dear Mr. And Mrs Waddell
I feel I owe you some remarks concerning the performance of my son. You know that when we met to discuss his concentration problems, I was a little bit sceptical as to the results you could bring him. My wife being more convinced than myself we decided to give it a try. Now, following the treatment and with greater objectivity we are all delighted to see – ourselves, his teachers and headmaster included – a real change in his behaviour not only in class but also at home and in everyday life. This was even true at the end of the sessions with you but we preferred to wait a while before sharing our pleasure with you and to thank you. It is certain that he is well changed since his sessions a little over a year ago and he is still on the right road. Our thanks to both of you.
