Additionally, Fundamental Learning Center is an International Multisensory Structured Language Education Council (IMSLEC) accredited site.  The Center has intensively prepared hundreds of highly-qualified and specifically trained individuals who provide direct intervention literacy instructional activities with children at-risk for significant reading difficulties across the state of Kansas.

According to research, one out of every five students struggle academically because they have dyslexia. Unfortunately, because Kansas is a state that does not specifically address dyslexia, very few individuals actually have accurate information. Instead, many “dyslexia myths” continue to be prevalent in our Kansas communities. Fundamental Learning Center hopes to remedy that by offering parents and teachers Dyslexia 101, a monthly lecture designed to share current, research based information and true, basic facts about dyslexia. Research has shown that dyslexic children are far more likely to succeed academically when parents become educated about dyslexia and provide a voice for their children. Teachers with reliable resources and up-to-date information can make knowledgeable decisions about a child’s instructional needs. Acquiring knowledge and understanding of all these areas is vital for anyone playing a role in the life of a dyslexic child.
