一、Fast ForWord英语快脑通产品系列
Fast ForWord英语快脑通是母语式英语阅读干预和辅助性课外朗读系统，适用于有较好英语基础和阅读需要但听读不够流畅的学习困难甚至阅读障碍、注意力缺陷学生一定时期内做专项听读附加训练。
根据科研发现和3年来的专业实施经验，一般汉语儿童可在较短时间内（正常儿童大概只需要3个月左右）顺利完成针对性训练，即可返回传统英语课堂继续学习，或继续参训Fast ForWord辅助性课外朗读系统RAEE。特殊儿童则可能需要很长时间做基本干预训练，或有完不成，因而难以进行下一步有意义的朗读训练，形成所谓“皮之不存，毛将焉附”的严重不足。因此Fast ForWord或以附加于母语式英语教学为最佳，不针对汉语式英语教学和应试。
以下简介基于3年来的一线专业经验。凡专业上不再适合或需要训练的汉语儿童，本中心都已劝退，避免空练，读而不懂，不为了商业利益而利用家长的“外行”甚至滥用家长的信任。
