How Can I Help?
There are many ways to help someone with dyslexia:
Initially, a diagnosis can identify particular areas of difficulties, individual strengths and any strategies used.
Following an assessment, personalised recommendations and adaptations for school, home and specialist teaching are made.
Specialist teaching in a multi-sensory, kinaethetic manner, self-esteem and self-confidence grows alongside strategies for academic development.

Through a Diagnostic Dyslexia Assessment.
-
Using the individual’s interests, strengths and difficulties, detailed recommendations are suggested for school, home and specialist teaching.

Multi-sensory and fun, linked to the school curriculum. Build up confidence and move at own pace. Ensure understanding before moving on to the next step. Lots of reinforcement games, with positive, specific praise and encouragement. Develop self-belief and increase self-esteem.
