About Us

Dyslexia Mastered is run by Ruth Ann Youngberg, in Bellingham, Washington. Ruth Ann has been trained in the Davis Dyslexia Correction® Methods, and is now a certified Davis Facilitator. She is a certified elementary schoolteacher with 19 years experience teaching all ages, children through adults. She has taught in public schools, Head Start, Sylvan Learning Center, as a Parent Advisor of hearing impaired children, and as a teacher of family relations classes on a university level. She has a Bachelor's degree in Child Development and Elementary Education, a Master's degree in Family Relations, and 27 further hours of university credit in education related subjects. She is the mother of 6 children, most of whom are gifted with dyslexic characteristics.
She became interested in working with dyslexics when she could see the difficult time that very intelligent children had with reading or remembering spelling words or math facts. Their performance did not fit their potential. There did not seem to be anything that could help these individuals. How exciting it was to find a program that could do just that! She now enjoys seeing young people and adults on their way to successfully achieving their full potential.
