Abstract
The aim of the research was to test the effectiveness of some exercises based on NLP techniques in developing language proficiency in a sample of children with reading disabilities. The effectiveness of the exercises in improving the language proficiency of a sample of children with reading difficulties was identified two months after the end of the exercises.
 In order to achieve this goal, 40 students from the Ashmoun Primary School - Al Salam Elementary School (experimental) were enrolled in the Menoufia Educational Administration. After excluding the students who did not complete the questionnaire, the number of participants reached (40) Between the ages of 6-8 years with a mean age of 7.3 years with a standard deviation of ± 1.232
The study used a number of measures, including the Child Behavior Rating Scale (C.B.R.S.), the Quick Neurological Screening Test (Q.N.S.T), and the Language Proficiency Test (PI). The researcher designed a program based on some NLP techniques.
The most important results of the research resulted:
1- There are statistically significant differences between the mean of the experimental group and the control group in the telemetry on the measure of linguistic proficiency in favor of the experimental group.
2 - There are statistically significant differences between the average scores of the experimental group in the tribal and remote measurements on the measure of linguistic proficiency in favor of telemetry.
3 - There are no statistically significant differences between the average scores of the experimental group in the post - measurement and follow - up on the measure of language proficiency
