"My daughter began working with Paula as she started secondary school, feeling low in self-esteem due to her severe dyslexia. After many unsuccessful attempts with other programs, we were inspired by a friend's recommendation to visit Paula in Mullingar.
From the first session, my daughter connected with her. Paula’s friendly approach helped my daughter understand and celebrate her unique learning style. We've seen incredible improvements in her reading, comprehension, and confidence—she even enjoys maths now!
Paula has made a significant impact on my daughter’s life, and I highly recommend her to any parent."

"Our journey with Paula began when our daughter started secondary school having always struggled with dyslexia, leading to severe stress and low grades. We were extremely worried about her mental health and future.
With Paula’s support, our daughter learned to understand her dyslexia as a gift and gained tools to manage her challenges. This boosted her confidence and helped us, as parents, learn how to assist her.
After completing her Leaving Certificate, she achieved 445 points, including a B1 in honours English, and secured her first choice in the CAO. We highly recommend Paula—she has truly changed our lives."

''I highly recommend Paula and the Davis program. My son S attended last year, and it has made a big positive difference to him in developing confidence and skills in managing his Dyslexic thinking in literacy and numeracy. He also transitioned from primary to secondary school with no difficulty.
Paula was brilliant with my son S!''

''We had no understanding of the challenges our daughter faced since starting school. Years of being labelled as fidgety and disruptive misled us about her struggles. Meeting Paula was an enormous relief; she quickly identified our daughter's dyslexia and explained how she could restructure learning to fit her natural style.
Our daughter learned to embrace her dyslexia and developed efficient learning methods through Paula's programme. I’m thrilled to say she is now in her second year of a four-year college degree and enjoying it immensely. We are incredibly grateful to Paula and encourage anyone concerned about a family member to speak with her."

''If you have a struggling child, don’t think about it… just make contact
Paula is wonderful. She makes the whole process enjoyable for the student, shows an incredible level of patience and humour while getting the job done.
The difference in confidence and literacy after one week is incredible and continues over the months. The program takes commitment from both parent and the student. It’s simple but it’s not easy – the results however are worth it.
Paula has and shares the key and once the key is turned, it makes school a better and brighter place to be, with endless opportunities.''

''Our daughter, bright and chatty at four, began struggling shortly after starting school, leading to daily school refusal, tears, and resistance. As homework meltdowns escalated, our worries grew.
Meeting Paula was a turning point. Her gentle yet persistent approach focused on small, manageable tasks, which we practiced at home. After weekly sessions, our daughter consistently showed small, measurable improvements. This method allowed her to develop literacy skills and gain confidence in the classroom.
Within months, she was at peer level in literacy and numeracy, and she now loves reading and completes her homework independently. We highly recommend Paula to any struggling parent."
