Dunson, who heads a company that provides language remediation services to students with language acquisition difficulties, provides parents, teachers, educational specialists, language specialists, and mainstream and special needs English departments with a systematic and forensic approach to helping students with dyslexia and other reading difficulties.

He describes the development of reading skills and the components of reading; primary difficulties that prevent students from mastering decoding (dyslexia and central processing disorder); specialized interventions at school and home, such as assistive technology, prereading maps, picture tasks, phonemic awareness drills, and the Orton-Gillingham approach; how vowels, consonants, and sounds create words; the construction of the English language; and a structured plan for teachers and parents.
