Students: pre-school through college
The Alpha Effect Listening Program has benefits for any student, of any age.
Since 2004, The Alpha Effect has been implemented in school settings with children, grades K–12, including general education, gifted, and special needs students.
Experience and research based evidence with these children, as well as adult learners, demonstrates that The Alpha Effect
- strengthens reading, writing and oral language capabilities; significantly improves comprehension and fluency.
- improves literacy, with reading fluency increasing by as much as 65%.
- enables students to stay on task, with minimum distractibility by improving attention span, focus, and completion.
- improves active listening skills.
- assists students to develop higher critical reading functions such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
- strengthens sensory motor skills, such as handwriting, visual tracking skills, and body awareness.
- improves memory and retention.
- provides opportunities for integration of a wider variety of learning experiences and a fuller degree of creative expression.
- increases self-confidence, self-image and social skills beyond the classroom.
