reading

Learning to read is fundamental to a child's learning as it opens the door to everything else.

Without adequate reading ability, learning becomes extremely challenging. Evidence shows how detrimental that is to the overall wellbeing of the child, and for their future outcomes. 

It is also often the source of disruptive behaviour or disengagement in the classroom. 

Imagine going into work every day and not having the right skill set to do your job?

Would it affect your self esteem?

Would it affect  your behaviour?

Would you even want to go into work?!

With the knowledge we now have about how to support the difficulties experienced by children; why are there still so many that leave the education system unable to read effectively? Of course, it takes time and funding  but it also has to be considered a priority. 

Without question, every child

should be given that chance.

I'm extremely passionate about children having the right opportunity to learn to read and also having the correct assistive technology in place to support them if required.  We still have a long way to go in making assistive technology an everyday resource for children that struggle, particularly in primary education, but momentum is happening. 

I have many years of experience in teaching reading, writing and spelling to those with specific learning difficulties and dyslexia.  

If you have students that are not making progress, please get in touch to see how I could help you improve the standards of reading within your school. 

For a struggling reader, whatever their age, individualised one to one intervention is best; particularly if they have a specific learning difficulty. However, small group intervention comes a very close second, and certainly better than nothing at all.
