Why specialist dyslexia teacher 1-1 lessons ?

Sessions might include games/ stories/ creative activities / sequencing/ recalling/ quizzes/assistive tech tools like online mind maps or voice to text software. 

We use small step targets to focus opportunities to fill learning gaps over time. 

We start with assessment and questionnaires so we can build an accurate picture of starting points. 

Then each half termly block  is designed to meet each learner's  unique needs, often focusing on  literacy, numeracy( if required) .

We check in at the end of every double block ( every term)   to review progress, make new plans and confirm bookings. 

For our dyslexic thinkers we use ideas from the book This is Dyslexia by Kate Griggs to help learners understand where their strengths are BECAUSE they are dyslexic. 

We reframe the narrative. We seek to harness strengths and dispel the view that you overcome challenges through resilience. We forge understanding that you are strong because you  think differently.
