Case Study: Porter Academy helps a 7-year-old with autism and ADHD achieve major academic and social gains with Integrated Listening Systems

Porter Academy improves reading comprehension to 63% with Integrated Listening Systems

Porter Academy utilized Integrated Listening Systems' iLs Sensory Motor Program to address the challenges of a seven-year-old student diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. The student presented with significant difficulties in anxiety, social interactions, attention, language, organization, and both fine and gross motor coordination.

The solution implemented by Integrated Listening Systems involved a rigorous schedule of three one-hour sessions per week, totaling 60 hours over an academic year. This was integrated with the student's existing occupational, speech, and music therapies. The results were substantial, including dramatic percentile improvements in academic areas like reading comprehension and spelling, alongside significant behavioral improvements in hyperactivity and anxiety. Parent and teacher reports noted a complete transformation in the student's social engagement, anxiety levels, and enthusiasm for learning.
