Dyslexia Specialists Training academy (coming 2028)

Our Mission

At Dyslexia Rescue, our mission is to train high-quality individuals in the field of Dyslexia Specialty to meet the needs of children and families in the private market by providing intensive educational intervention through 1:1 instruction for elementary aged students who are one or more years behind in reading level. Student lessons may be in person or via videoconference format.

Our Approach

We provide online training, preparing you to teach children with dyslexia, ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence how reading works. And, we will help prepare you to open your own private practice, becoming the master of your own destiny. The curriculum and methods you will learn are those of Diana Finch, President of Dyslexia Rescue (fo

Frequently Asked Questions about the academy

Please reach us at readingrescuecenters@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What are the process and requirements for enrolling in Dyslexia Rescue's online training program?

To enroll in Dyslexia Rescue's online training program, simply forward your resume and letter of interest in the program to us. We will contact you to provide "next steps". The technology end of the program is still under development. Program application will include a full background check, criminal history check, personality testing, reference check, verification of prior education or certifications and a tele-interview.

In light of the recent, societal trend away from university education, we do not have any specific formal education background requirements. Each applicant will be thoroughly evaluated for suitability for the program. Program graduates will be ranked on a system that recognizes the level of education they entered the program with; for example: those who enter as qualified teachers will be ranked Level One, those who enter with a bachelor's degree of any kind will be ranked Level Two, those who enter with less formal education will be ranked Level Three. This system opens the door for practitioners of every level and yet, publicly recognizes the accomplishments of all.

*For those practitioners who choose to participate in our referral program, after completing their training, Dyslexia Rescue will publicly suggest that graduate practitioner's rates reflect these levels but will not enforce any such system, allowing graduates to set their own rates in their own private practices according to what the market will support. The reputation that each practitioner develops within their private practice will naturally affect the rates they are able to attract. Graduate certificates will also reflect the practitioner level.

Upon your acceptance to the program, tuition will be due. So, please make any needed preparations.

When does the program begin, how long is the program and are there follow-up services?

Enrollment for the first nine-month cohort of the Dyslexia Rescue (DR) training program for new Private Dyslexia Specialists begins June 1, 2025 and will close when the program cap is reached. Course study for the first cohort begins January 2, 2026 and will be complete (graduation) on or about September 1, 2026.

You will need to devote approximately twenty hours per week to study, watching lesson videos, readings, group chats and program meetings. All times are flexible, to fit your schedule, except for your weekly online group meeting with Diana. After successful completion of your training, you may opt into the ongoing support and referral program for a small, yearly fee, where you will have access to a lesson video library, be listed as a trained provider on our website to receive referrals and other support services. All training and services are online.

What are the benefits and costs of the training program? Is the program relevant in the age of AI?

In this nine-month training program, you will receive the benefit of Diana's $350,000 worth of education and 35 years of experience, including a presidential appointment and eight years as a highly successful private practitioner. You will be prepared to enter the private market with skills that command a professional rate (Diana's current rates are $130 per 45 minute lesson). As a successful graduate of the program and member of the ongoing support program (if you so choose) your credibility as a trained professional, when approaching the private market, will rest upon the excellent reputation and results borne by this program (formerly Reading Rescue of Naples FL). www.readingrescuecenters.com. The program is even more relevant in this age of AI. The jobs and services that will be is demand in the next decade will be those that only human interaction can achieve. This is one of those. Parents will always value the human development aspect of personal lessons. And, it's likely that no AI will ever be able to fully comprehend and meaningfully respond to the range of emotions that a child moves through as they learn and recover from the emotional impact of past failure in the classroom.

For all of this, you will pay tuition of $10,000 for your training program.

For those who like to "go deep", what is the deeper importance of "rescuing those termed as dyslexic"?

As the team at DR sees it, the deeper importance is that those termed as having dyslexia, or as "dyslexic" are the ones most likely to lead humanity out of its current crisis. They are the Wayseers, the ones who see the big picture, will challenge the status-quo and will "break the matrix" in favor of better outcomes for humanity. So, rescuing young "dyslexics" not only means the important task of helping children and families. But, also means helping to 'turn the tide' of the global challenge that we find ourself in today.
