We had the best possible experience with Shaun Aguilar as our son’s dyslexia tutor. Our son recently completed his dyslexia tutoring program with Shaun. They met about twice a week during the school year and more often over the summer, almost all of them were over zoom. The whole program took just over two years. After spending so much time with Shaun, we highly recommend him as a tutor.

First of all, Shaun is a great teacher. Our son has learned such a great deal about reading! Under Shaun's instruction, our son is doing much better in school. His grades have improved, and he has more confidence. He now understands the rules in our language, and he has the tools he needs to succeed with his dyslexia.

Shaun is a patient teacher, and he came into each session with a relaxed manner that put our son at ease. Shaun has a great understanding of what our son is going through, and that empathy makes a big difference in how our son responds to him. Our son is also less frustrated, anxious, and angry because he is succeeding at school. And he now regards his dyslexia as merely a different way of seeing the world, not as a disability.

Shaun was more than a tutor. He made a strong connection with our son, and our son considers him a friend. We had other tutors in the past and none of them were able to relate with our son like Shaun was. They have such a special rapport, and our son looked forward to his tutoring sessions. I could hear them laughing throughout their time together.

As a parent, I appreciate how professional and responsible Shaun always was. The communication was outstanding. He always kept us, the parents, informed of our son’s progress. He was flexible and understanding when we had scheduling conflicts. He was transparent about the process and billing. And he gave good advice when we asked for it. Shaun was even willing to meet with us on zoom rather than in person because that worked better for our family.

We have no hesitation in recommending Shaun as a dyslexia tutor. Our experience with him was nothing short of outstanding!

I can’t express how grateful I am for the Dyslexic Group and Miss.Kristie. My son was diagnosed with dyslexia earlier this year and it was struggle to get him the help he needed at his school. I contacted a couple places and did not get a response. The Dyslexic Group was fast to respond and was very helpful with all the questions I had. When you first entered the Dyslexic Group office it is very warm and inviting. Shawn was helpful with questions and he cared about placing my son with the best matched tutor based on his reading level and personality. He was lucky to have Miss Kristie. She’s amazing, she would be just as excited as my son was about his achievements. My son has been with her for a couple months and we can already see improvement. Hands down they are absolutely the BEST.

I can’t express how grateful I am for the entire team at the Dyslexic Group. My son was diagnosed this year with dyslexia and it was a real struggle to find additional help outside of the school. We contacted a couple places and did a couple center tours. The Dyslexic Group was fast to respond and are on their A game for follow-ups. When we first entered the Dyslexic Group office it was very warm and inviting. The directors were helpful with questions and really showed they cared about placing my son with the best matched tutor based on his reading/writing level and personality. We are lucky to have Miss Amy. She’s super amazing. My son has been with her for a couple months and we can already see improvement. They also went above and beyond to work with the school to help coordinate accommodations and to create an affective learning plan. Hands down they are absolutely the BEST!

My daughter has been seeing The Dyslexic Group for a few months now. The experience so far has been great! She started with another local tutor prior and I was questioning some of their methods and approach although still Barton. After talking to Shaun, I felt much more comfortable with the Dyslexic Group philosophy and ideas for support. I'm so glad I made the switch!

Shaun is the most dedicated, understanding and passionate educator I know. My son was in middle school and my daughter was in high school when they both were finally diagnosed with dyslexia. The schools had failed them and their lack of confidence showed. They started working with Shaun and not only did he teach them to read by utilizing the Barton program, he helped them regain their dignity and self esteem. I will forever be grateful to Shaun and The Dyslexic Group for the support provided not only to my kids, but to me as well. I credit Shaun for saving my kids and for giving us the gift of hope in our darkest time.

My daughter has been going to The Dyslexic Group since she was diagnosed with reading troubles at school, and a doctor diagnosed her with dyslexia. Miss Alanna has been wonderful, and my daughter is reading with much more ease. There was a drastic improvement in her reading scores over the last 6 months! Thank you thank you thank you to The Dyslexic Group for all you have done. It’s truly life changing for my daughter.

Shaun from the Dyslexic Group has helped my son by using the proven Barton method. Shaun is more than a tutor. He is a coach, a mentor and a cheer leader. He went above and beyond to help us navigate not just reading but also the other challenges that come along with dyslexia. Instead of dyslexia holding us down, we now feel empowered.
