NILD has been around since 1973.

They have since trained more than 10,000 educators in different areas. NILD is endorsed by the International Dyslexia Association. The Feuerstein Institute has greatly contributed to NILD’s practice.  Read this article.<\/a><\/span><\/p> <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n \n <\/div>
