Learning failure is a problem faced by most teaching institutions today. One can debate about the causes but the fact remains that the majority of scholars experience this problem at some time or other in their school career. As we all know, concentration, memory and especially reading are essential if learning is to take place.  We were introduced to Audiblox one and a half years ago where we recognized the immense potential of this system.  Our first noticeable success was a pupil who came to our school with a poor academic record whose prognosis was poor. The child was able to concentrate for extremely short periods of time only. In addition, he could not retain information for any period of time. After three months of intensive Audiblox training, a remarkable improvement was noted by all of his teachers. The child passed tests for the first time in his school career and has moved on to the high school where he is coping.  Our group results were just as convincing and not only did the pupils benefit substantially, but they also enjoyed the Audiblox sessions. Teachers noted that pupils who attended these sessions were far better in class than previously. Their attention span had increased, leading to better academic performance.  These results convinced us that each pupil in the school should benefit form Audiblox. All our teachers have received training and are enthusiastically conducting Audiblox sessions. — Mr. Peter Nel, Principal.

I would like to tell you how impressed I am with the Audiblox program. I worked with 10 children last year and we did one hour, three times per week for the whole year. I had one child in the class that I had been doing remedial work with the previous three years with no sign of progress. He remained a real worry to me as to his parents. After only one year of Audiblox, he ended up at the end of last year in the top of his class. He has gained confidence in his abilities and I feel is on the road to success. — Mrs. P. J. Spibey, Remedial Teacher, Australia.

Audiblox opens up new vistas for all those with learning and reading problems. It is based on scientific learning and reading principles that have been researched over a period of years by Dr. Jan Strydom. This explains why Audiblox is being employed so successfully in solving learning and reading problems.  It provides answers to many of the riddles that have been plaguing experts on the subject of learning and reading problems. Scientists from many fields of enquiry would do well to take note of Dr. Strydom's work and should put Audiblox to the test, so that they may also discover its effectiveness. Educationists, educational authorities, and teachers especially should take the new prospects made available by Audiblox very seriously. It offers many possibilities of application in education, because it improves reading and spelling ability, sharpens concentration, develops perception and memory, and enhances logical thinking. It can put innumerable pupils, at present experiencing failure at school, on the road to successful learning.  For the first time there is real hope in the battle against learning and reading problems, not only inside the classroom, but also outside. Dr. Strydom must be congratulated on a revolutionary, brilliant, but at the same time simple and easily applicable program. — Prof. E. J. van Niekerk, University of South Africa


A large number of students are at present experiencing problems with learning. These are evidenced, for example, in a short attention span, in reading and spelling problems, in difficulties with math, in restlessness, etc.  On the causes of such problems there will probably never be complete agreement, but of far greater importance is the question: what can one do to help such students?  Over the past six years I have had the privilege of getting to know Dr. Jan Strydom's Audiblox program. I have referred many students so that they might follow the program, both in individual and group situations. Without exception I was impressed by the positive results that were achieved. A factor that, in my opinion, enhances the value of the program is the fact that such positive results could be noticed in all age groups — toddlers, children, young university students and adults.  The benefits of the program also extend beyond its use merely for the solution of specific learning problems. Also to persons who wish to improve their cognitive abilities — even when no specific learning problem is present — the program has shown its undeniable value. — Dr. B. H. du Toit, Psychologist, University of Pretoria.

Our school has been seeking for some time an effective method of improving the remediation of all pupils who require help. Audiblox has proved to be the most effective method — not only is it easy to administer but it has appeal to the students, and can be applied across the barriers of nationality. Both in the classroom situation, and in the specialized remediation groups, Audiblox is proving its worth and students are showing real, measurable progress. — Mr. Robert Tucker, Deputy Headmaster, International School, Malawi.

Research has proved that the brains of most people remain underdeveloped because they are not used and developed properly.  In the case of the child, initially the rate of development of the brain is high, but in time a gradual decline in the rate of development occurs. This happens for several reasons.  In practice it has been shown that children need that extra essential development as soon as formal teaching is commenced. In our school, Audiblox was the solution. Where else does one encounter a form of instruction in which the brain of the individual or group of individuals is forced to concentrate to the full extent; in which each individual competes only with himself, thereby immediately eliminating the fear of failure?  Audiblox has given this to us!!  During class visits I was amazed to see the progress of children of 6, 7 and 8 years old after only a month on the Audiblox program. The self-discipline of the children has improved astoundingly. Their enthusiasm for further practice knows no bounds and their self-confidence has improved considerably.  To me, the most important further aspect that needs to be highlighted is the fact that Audiblox enhances the holistic development of the child. From very early in life they are turned into realistic thinkers with a broader vision of what the learning process is all about.  As a result of the positive contribution of Audiblox to the development of the child on a wide front, we decided to introduce the program for all pupils from Grade One up to high school level — and that after we had initially introduced it only as a remedial program for our pupils with learning problems!  A problem experienced throughout our communities is that parents have not been trained to stimulate their children to a maximum level. With Audiblox at home or in the school, this problem is solved.  Hereby we wish to extend our thanks and felicitations to Dr. Jan Strydom for this excellent program. — Mr. R. J. Stevens, Principal.

Busy Bee Play School is making use of the Audiblox program in a group situation.  We are able to use the program with the 3 years junior grouping, 3-4 years middle group and the preschool group at various levels.  Audiblox teaches a wide spectrum of concepts, namely color, shape, number, mathematical concepts, and sequencing. It is used in part for auditory and visual perception, and language development. Self-image is boosted and memory is exercised. Discipline is an integral part of the program. I feel the program is multi-dimensional in the learning process and teaches open-ended problem solving, and thinking. — Mary-Anne Jacobs, Busy Bee Play School.

Through correct exposure and practice, skills acquired via Audiblox give any person the edge in the learning race. The road of learning has become a superhighway; lets stop using donkey carts for the journey. — Mr. L. Turner, Human Resources Manager.
