What Students Say

My name is Caroline Janssen. I live in Gonubie and am very grateful to Audiblox and those committed to the programme.

Throughout junior school I struggled with reading which in turn affected most of my work. I coped well with maths, however when story sums were introduced to us I started to struggle with maths as well. My mom tried everything she could to help me, sending me on all sorts of extra lessons. By the time I was in Grade 7 and we had tried everything available and I had become despondent. When mom suggested I try the Audiblox I made her promise that this had to be the last thing I was going to try.

It was suggested that I go on the intense course. Before I started the course my reading was tested using a Grade 6 text and it showed that I was reading at a Grade 1 standard. Once I had completed the intense course my reading was tested again, this time using a Grade 7 text, my reading had improved to the level of a Grade 6!!!

I carried on with Audiblox attending classes three times a week for another 18 months. Through Audiblox I learnt a lot about myself and where my strengths lay, I then used these methods to learn. As the years went by my marks improved each term, I have just written matric (matric = Grade 12) and passed with a distinction — 3 B's and 3 A's !!!!! I will be going to UCT to do a BSc degree. — Caroline Janssen, Gonubie, South Africa.

My reading speed, with full comprehension, has doubled during the past nine weeks. I find intellectual work less tiring and find that I can wake up every morning without an alarm clock. — Mr. Adriaan Schutte, B.Com. Student.

My reading speed and ability to concentrate improved gradually, with the result that I could study for longer periods on end. At present I make fewer spelling mistakes, while my work tempo has improved remarkably. During the first semester I still needed extra time to complete test and exam papers, which was not necessary during the last semester at all. These factors all contributed to better academic achievements, a better self-image, accompanied with greater purposefulness, motivation and self-discipline. — Chris van Niekerk, Student in Metallurgical Engineering.

Thank you for Audiblox. My self-esteem has improved tremendously and my attitude towards my studies has changed. My concentration and memory have also improved. My parents' point of view is that Audiblox is a much better legacy than gold or silver, because it is helping me in many different ways to be a better student and to experience the joy of achievement. — Petrus Etsebeth, High School Student.

I am a student of Steele-Dawson Elementary school and i was wondering if you could tell our teacher that i think audiblox is fun.and if we could play the old game one more time before we get the know ones and could you please send a movie with you on it about audiblox because we are all so curious to see you and maybe sometime meet you. nice of you to send this product to us it is just so much fun and how could our class ever repay you. — Student, Steele-Dawson Elementary School.
