Customer Reviews

A terrific approach to a child with learning disabilities
My son's psychiatrist recommended this video for us to view. It made me cry to view how my son may view the world, and learning in general. I would recommen it for every parent and educator who has to help a child with a learning disability.

FAT City revisited
I was pleased to find some new information as well as to revisit what was originally in the FAT City video. Richard Lavoie amazes me in that he has a mantra that doesn't change over the years, but feels as fresh as the first time that I watched FAT City. I use the original video with as many teachers and teachers-in training as I can. I am never disappointed by their oohs and aahs as they either find something that lights a bulb for them or brings out an experience. This is the finest work on learning disabilities that I have ever come across. I recommend both the original and the follow-up for those who want to understand learning disabilities.

I am a teacher educator both in the US and abroad.

excellent for parents with LD kids
As a parent of 2 LD kids, I found this follow up DVD full of very useful, current information. The knowledge that I gained has given me a deeper understanding of my kids, and will allow me to help them in the future.
