The parents’ opinion was that the Tomatis® listening therapy had positive results in 90% of the researched cases (35 out of 39 children). Looking only at the effects of the method on learning and language problems, the improvement percentage is lower. Starting the Tomatis® listening therapy, 34 children chose for the method to improve their learning, and language skills. In 22 cases their skills were improved. The 9 children with speech problems all showed positive results following the Tomatis® listening therapy. Because some children received other guidance before, during and after the Tomatis® listening therapy, it is not clear what the effect of the Tomatis® Method exactly is. An improvement in learning, language and speech was obvious though. It is important to proceed doing research on children with learning, speech and language problems following the Tomatis® listening therapy without other guidance or intervention.
