Children from the age of four can now embrace a new learning center that has recently been launched in Amman— TRS (Think, Read, Speak) Learning Center was established with the mission to take students from ‘learning to read’ to ‘reading to learn’ by utilizing the Fast ForWord Program, one of the Scientific Learning family of products.

TRS Learning Center is the exclusive provider of Scientific Learning products and the only learning center in Jordan to utilize the Fast ForWord program, to develop and strengthen reading skills, language skills, as well as writing and comprehension skills that are essential for academic success. The Fast ForWord products also simultaneously develop Memory, Attention, Processing Rate and Sequencing.

Seema Tabbaa, co-owner of TRS Learning Center, stated, “If you are an English language learner, a gifted student, a good student, someone with mild learning difficulties or an adult who wants to learn how to read or become a better reader, the Fast ForWord program caters to you. At TRS, we use the most advanced methods in teaching, bridging technology and education to create more enthusiasm for reading. The Fast ForWord program consists of 6 levels that simultaneously develop English and learning skills, allowing learners to build the necessary tools that will last them a life-time.”

Masarra Touqan, co-owner of TRS Learning Center, stated, “We believe that learning is a skill that is needed throughout life and not a phase limited to school years, for that reason, we actually teach the students how to study through computer based programs. Studies have revealed that the Fast ForWord program allows students to gain stronger retention and recall of information, event sequences and details, which reflect on subjects like history, sciences and maths. Just as a body runs better and quicker when fit, brains learn better after consistent use with the Fast ForWord exercises.”

In addition to boosting reading and language skills, the Fast ForWord program improves self-esteem including participation in the classroom and group activities, clear communication including vocabulary, spontaneity and the ability to stay on topic, as well as better academic achievements and longer attention spans.

The cutting-edge Fast ForWord program, used in over 40 countries around the world, is a learning acceleration program based on over 30 years of neuroscience research, designed for education institutions, English language learning centers and clinical specialists worldwide.
