Judith Schwarcz

Judith SchwarczJudith Schwarcz, Director of DDA Israel - after reading “The Gift of Dyslexia’ 5 years ago, I decided to explore the Davis method of correction. I studied for 5 years, becoming a Facilitator in 1999. Because I have lived with the “gift” of Dyslexia all my life, I have dedicated my time and experience trying to help others that have the same needs to realise, as I had, that the “problem” can be corrected by the use of the Davis “Tools”. Having worked  as a Facilitator since 1999 and seeing the dramatic and positive changes in children and adults on completion of the Davis Correction Program, I realised that my goal to spread “Davis” was incomplete. I embarked on becoming a Specialist, so as to open the door and enable children and adults to reach their true potential and achieve whatever goal they desire. I became a Specialist in May 2003 and I am extremely pleased that I can now continue my mission.

Schwarcz Becomes First Facilitator in Israel

In 1997, Judith Schwarcz listened to The Gift of Dyslexia on tape and immediately flew to England with her son to do a Davis program with Hilary Farmer and Lin Seward. Since then, she has worked tirelessly to increase awareness of the Davis methods in Israel.

During her Facilitator training in England, Switzerland, and the US, she met and conquered the challenge to adapt Davis Symbol Mastery exercises to an entirely different alphabet and develop a Hebrew trigger word list. She is currently working on translating and publishing a Hebrew edition of The Gift of Dyslexia.

In addition to offering the Davis Dyslexia Correction Program and student advocacy services, Judith runs a parent support group for English Speaking Residents Association (ESRA). In 1998, Judith won the ESRA Volunteer Award for her dynamic leadership, initiative and sensitivity to the needs of the parents and children of the Learning Disabilities Support Group.
