The Listening Program, (TLP) is a music and sound
stimulation method designed to re-train the auditory system. This innovative
program may be used by children and adults to enhance listening skills and
remediate sound-related perceptual distortions.
The Listening Program: The team that created The Listening Program has
respectfully built upon the pioneering work of Dr. Alfred Tomatis and other
researchers who have developed modern auditory training applications.
Numerous vital elements make The Listening Program unique: Cross-Disciplinary
Team development. TLP was developed by a team that brought together in-depth
knowledge of human neurology, speech/language pathology, psychoacoustics,
classical music, recording, and sound processing.

These brain-training exercises actually speak to the user in a realistic human voice, making him feel as though he is playing with a real person who encourages, praises and challenges him to do his best. SoundSmart automatically adapts its presentation to the age of the "player" --- novel feedback and entertaining encouragement for kids, colorful but not childish presentation for adults. The computer displays a record of how much “prize money” the user is accumulating by doing a good job! If you wish, you can allow the user to trade in prize money for actual prizes to boost motivation. Records on each user are automatically kept by the computer, which also keeps track of where the individual stopped in his training. |
