East Greenville’s Truly Heft graduated from high school thanks to help from Dysolve AI, writes Stephen Williams for WHYY.
Heft struggled in high school due to a dyslexia diagnosis. The disability affects reading and writing comprehension making studying a difficult task for any student.
After trying private tutors, Heft’s family discovered Dysolve AI. The software program uses customized games to learn the specific limits of the user’s comprehension. It then tailors modules to help the user overcome the disability.
Using Dysolve AI, Heft treated her dyslexia and graduated high school. She now attends Gwynedd Mercy University. Her two siblings, Paisley and Ellis also have issues with comprehension and use Dysolve AI.
“Our youngest wasn’t reading when he started the program at 9 years old. But within a few months, [he] learned to read with no other intervention,” their mother, Tember Heft.
Dysolve AI is a subscription-based software, costing users $222 per month.
Hoh, the software’s creator, hopes that public school systems will purchase the program and bring down the cost for individual users.
According to a spokesperson for Governor Shapiro, Pennsylvania’s budget for special education increased by $100 million this year. Read more about Dysolve AI and how it helped Truly Heft make it to Gwynedd Mercy University at WHYY.
