Effective and constructive :-)
I started both distance programs in 2011. By 2013 I was finished with both — dyslexia and dyscalculia trainer. I took my time; it was/is wonderfully compatible with family life. The study materials are well structured and sensibly build on each other. You can ask questions through ADA's customer center at any time. For the practical part I found two subjects each, worked intensively with them, including the anamnesis conversation with parents and the AFS test. I was able to put my self-developed worksheets to good use and try them out. The constantly expanded options in the customer center, whether continuing education, AFS test, worksheets, or chat, together form a very good framework for effective and constructive work with students who suffer from dyspraxia. I can highly recommend these ADA distance programs, am fully satisfied, have been working regularly with this platform for the past 9 years, and have recommended it to colleagues. One colleague is starting the program next week. Heartfelt thanks for the very good cooperation. Especially in the current crisis I'm totally thrilled with the support and options that I/we get for our work with students to keep going. Keep it up!!!
It helped me and my clients wonderfully!
My child had dyslexia and the help available was simply far too little. So after my psychology degree I studied at ADA to become a dyslexia trainer — wonderful material, wonderful people, and my goal of helping children has thus been fulfilled. Heartfelt thanks to everyone!
An investment in the future...
I completed my certification back in 2008. Since then I've felt well equipped for the demands of tailored teaching for each student. Without this program I probably would have stuck with simple "German tutoring," which wouldn't have done justice to the actual support needs.
The best program
This program changed my life dramatically. I'm now finally able to pursue my dream of helping children and parents. Thank you so much for the wonderful support during my studies and still today. Kind regards, Axel Marguerite
Excellent training
I'd like to thank ADA warmly for this excellent training and the great support. Working through the individual modules taught me a lot about the topic. The structure is very well organized and learning was a pleasure. The additional books were extremely fascinating and gave even deeper insights. I find it especially meaningful that there's a lot of practical work. I now apply much of the content in my classroom teaching, too. Because not only do dyslexic children benefit from it — all students do. I can wholeheartedly recommend this training!
Educational and holistic material
As a trained occupational therapist I added the qualification as a certified dyslexia trainer 13 years ago. I can only say my expectations were fully met. The study materials gave me a good entry point, overview, and deepening of my existing knowledge. With my well-founded training I've already been able to help many children and adolescents. The methods offered through computer programs and therapy material helped me enormously. I can only recommend this program. Many thanks to the ADA team.
certified dyslexia trainer
I was very satisfied with my certification as a dyslexia trainer! Throughout the program I was always supported very kindly and helpfully by ADA's staff (in Klagenfurt) whenever I had professional questions. Many heartfelt thanks for that! Overall the program gave me a lot of joy that I — alongside the dyslexia knowledge I gained — can now pass on professionally to children and adults, having completed my course in December 2013 with excellent results and additional commendation. A small note: the required reading was quite extensive — in places the focus areas were repeated too often in description, while dyslexia in adults unfortunately came up too short. The issue of dyslexia in adults with a tailored support program (from age 15) was also addressed too briefly. I wish the ADA team continued success. Kind regards, certified dyslexia trainer, Mo. Rafael
Very well-founded training
Very well-founded training in dyslexia, dyscalculia, and learning didactics. Professionally excellent and a very warm, humane perspective on the affected children/teens. A valuable contribution to the "integration" of "disadvantaged children." The difficulty isn't treated as a disability or illness but as a different way the brain is wired. Great, keep going :-)
Dyslexia distance learning
I've already successfully completed the dyslexia program and I'm thrilled at the progress my dyslexic son is making. He's making huge strides and loves the playful training.
wonderful!
Very pleasant, flexible, competent, well-founded.
Outstanding training — outstanding support
I'm a partial-performance-weakness trainer in the Sindelar method and was looking for a way to expand my knowledge. I found exactly that, to my complete satisfaction, in the dyslexia trainer training. The AFS method — the combination of attention, function, and symptom training — is a well-rounded, coherent thing because it covers all the areas where a dyslexic child stumbles. The openness of the method actively welcomes supplements with other methods that help the child with their individual dyslexia. The AFS method is brilliant and promises good results quickly for people with dyslexia. The course material is extensive, detailed, and demanding, and drawn from practice. The support during the training was excellent and I felt accompanied and supported. On weekdays I got an answer to my questions within a few hours.
Review of the dyslexia and dyscalculia distance course
Dear Sir or Madam, during my work through the required reading, the theory sections of the modules, and the exam questions/handling of specific issues, I found the support from the customer center outstanding and consistently prompt. I evaluate the program as a scientifically well-founded, pedagogically and didactically excellently structured, and high-quality further education/qualification! Many thanks! Kirsten Nagel
Very good support and understandable, instructive material
At first I was a bit skeptical whether this course would meet my expectations and give me the working tools and methods I had in mind. I can only say my expectations were fully met. The study materials gave me a good entry point and overview. Whenever I had questions or comments, I always felt heard. Email contact was also a positive surprise. Replies came very quickly and my workflow was never disrupted. The content of the answers was clear and understandable. The methods offered via computer programs and the shop materials helped me put what I learned into practice well. I can only recommend this program. Many thanks to the ADA team
Distance courses
- Very informative and helpful materials and learning content, both for teachers and learners; - Quick, individual, unbureaucratic support and help; - Very competent, personal, and "human" contacts; - An innovative and flexible team that respects the personality of "learning" people; - Extensive continuing education offerings and excellently organized professional conferences; - THANKS for these courses and the many free offerings; - THANKS to the whole team.
Great organization
Everything has been well organized from the start. Always competent advice and personal communication. The professional conference is always worth a trip to Salzburg. The content and AFS method are easy to combine with other approaches.
Super satisfied!
Whenever I had questions about a module, I could always reach out and get help very fast! Many connections were revealed based on current research. Truly recommended!
Very good program
My time as a dyslexia trainer student is now a few years back. Since then a lot has changed on the virtual campus. I couldn't yet submit my assignments and exams online — that's been possible for many years now. That was a really good improvement. During the program I always felt well looked after; submitted assignments were reviewed quickly and returned promptly, corrected if needed. What I would have wished for was an introduction to various standardized test procedures and to didactics specific to German and math. Kind regards, Elke Nordmann

Your Dyslexia Trainer Certificate Program Team
It couldn't be better
Unfortunately only 5 stars are possible. Absolutely recommended. Questions are answered very quickly. I feel well taken care of. One of the best decisions to complete my course with ADA. More follow-up courses are coming.
Training as certified dyslexia trainer
The training through ADA as a dyslexia trainer is comprehensive, methodologically open, and ahead of the curve. The materials are as clear and structured as the digital offering. Mentors are there in an instant and ready for any question. Answers are competent and usually sent in writing. I especially appreciate the overall setup of the training and the broadly conceived continuing education offerings that remain available afterwards, both as conferences and as digital distance courses. My highest recommendation.
good training materials
Very good training materials. The training is comprehensive, you get holistic information. Contact with the trainer is uncomplicated, and concerns are addressed promptly.
