Symbol Mastery

A fun, easy, and multi-sensory way to master abstract words!

Find out why these words so difficult for dyslexics!
Davis Symbol Mastery® provides clients with the ability to understand abstract words and gives them a picture with which they can think!

After mastering the basic literacy symbols (letters and punctuation), clients are introduced to a fun, creative, and highly effective method for mastering words.

The three components necessary in order for a Dyslexic to really understand (and process while reading) a word are:

  • What the word looks like (spelling)
  • What it sounds like (pronunciation)
  • What it means (the picture created from the dictionary definition of the word)


Homophones like “there” and “their” are a common source of confusion for many. The pictures below demonstrate how the Davis Symbol Mastery® techniques are used to eliminate confusion with these abstract and frequently misused words. Using the creative process to master words is the best way to promote permanent learning!

Symbol mastery for THERE
there - at or in that place. The dogs are there.
Symbol mastery for THEIR
their - belonging to them. Their dog is cute!
