Martin Ingvar is Professor at Karolinska Institute and chairman of the Swedish Dyslexia Association and scientific consult for the evaluation of the Rydaholm Method.

“The automaticity is the key. By practicing the basic elements the student with a reading difficulty can reach a level of automaticity where fluent and comprehensive reading is achieved.”

“You can certainly become a good reader through intensive training, despite reading disabilities / dyslexia.”

“The effects of dyslexia must not be a life-long verdict. The dyslexics reading capability just need more training than an average reader.”

“Dyslexia is a hereditary disability to master the written language. You can’t ‘cure’ dyslexia with training but you can alleviate the adverse effects.”

“Many dyslexics have developed compensatory methods to a degree where they no longer consider their dyslexia as a problem.”

“Even if a dyslexic person can manage well the problem with spelling, when it comes to switching to another language the problems will reappear.”

The Rydaholm Method

The Rydaholm Method is for students with reading disabilities. It requires a mutual commitment to conduct a long-term, purposeful and structured work during the necessary time to reach the goal. The method in itself is really simple but requires a high and clear engagement from the teacher.
