is the director of The Reading Foundation, which he started in Calgary in 1990 and in Vancouver in 1994. He has specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of learning disabilities as a school psychologist and Director of The Reading Foundation for over 30 years. His extensive range of experience with parents, school districts, teachers, and students has given him and The Reading Foundation a North American reputation for excellence and integrity of service.
He also taught junior high school language arts for several years before he entered graduate school, where he specialized in learning theory. Dr. Truch has had numerous books, articles and research reports published over the years. The results of the clinical work in reading and spelling at The Reading Foundation have been published in the renowned Annals of Dyslexia. The more recent results with the Discover Math® Program have been published in the British Columbia Learning Assistance Teacher's Association Newsletter. In both cases, the outcomes offer solid evidence for the success of The Reading Foundation's approach.
The Reading Foundation is a private clinic (with offices in Calgary and Vancouver) that provides the diagnosis and treatment of difficulties in reading and spelling, math, comprehension, and written language that affect children, adolescents and adults.
Our intervention programs are unique, dynamic and powerful. They offer new hope, even to people who have long-standing and serious reading and math problems and who have not responded to other methods.
An individual assessment is first required. Once the nature of the learning profile is clearly identified, a recommendation for intensive individual intervention is prescribed. Individuals are taught on a one-to-one basis, which ensures maximum effectiveness and allows our staff to adapt to the student's individual needs.
