Background

I have a post-graduate Diploma in Dyslexia and Literacy from York University and a current Dyslexia Guild Assessment Practising Certificate that allows me to carry out diagnostic assessments for dyslexia.

I have been teaching and supporting dyslexic learners, from seven year olds to adults, since 2005, often liaising with their teachers or employers. I have worked with GCSE and A level students and also supported university students with their assignments and dissertations. I am very aware of the complex difficulties that characterise dyslexia, but fully appreciate that every learner has a unique profile of strengths and weaknesses. I have kept up with current research on dyslexia and new approaches to assessing this specific learning difficulty.

How I can help

I work hard to deliver learning support programmes in a supportive and relaxed environment that target individual needs, increase confidence and ensure progress. My Practicing Certificate allows me to carry out diagnostic assessments for dyslexia and Exam Access Arrangements.
