My clients with both ADHD and dyslexia sometimes have trouble staying motivated to practice daily. I would love to be able to write a note of encouragement each day to coach them along. This way they know I'm watching their progress. Would love to know what you think of this idea.
Thanks for a great product, Leslie

Great idea! We can work on that Would you see the congratulatory message appearing when the child logs in to mylexercise.com ?
Thanks for your good idea!

Hi Sandie, Yes, that's what I was thinking, that the child could see the message when she logs in to mylexercise.com. Don't know how easy it would be to finagle such a thing.

We can certainly put that in the cue of site changes.
I usually send emails to my Lexercise kids at least once... and often twice... a week.. I given them feedback about their % accuracy and their error words, esp. on Isolator. Is that what you'd like to see as an automated message?

Hi Sandie:
What I had in mind was not an automated message, but a message that I could
write, a note of encouragement that I could personalize, to help with
motivation. When I log onto lexercise.com there is that space to write a
note about each client.For awhile, I thought my clients could see that and I
was writing them notes. That's what gave me the idea. Something along those
lines. Does that make sense? Please let me know if I can be more clear.
I appreciate your openness to this suggestion. Not all of my little clients
have email. And I think it would be more motivating for them to see the
message when they log in to do their lexercise games.
Thanks Sandie!

p.s. By the way, it helped with motivation and Isolator accuracy to shorten
game times. However, this little guy has such an ADHD profile, and his
scores are still erratic, particularly on the single modality games: printed
to printed, sound to sound. I'll write about it in the forum. I wish more
people participated in the forum. It could be such a great resource.

I like the idea of note to the client when they log on. It can be motivating to know you are watching progress and then to send congratulatory message just to them. Karol
