Individual teaching tailored to the learner
Specialist dyslexia teaching provides multi-sensory, structured, individual support for children and young people who are experiencing difficulties with literacy. I work with learners aged 5–16 in Trafford and South Manchester, adapting sessions to their individual strengths, needs and learning profile.
My approach
Using sight, sound, touch, and movement in sessions, helping to build stronger brain connections.
I want learners to leave sessions with strategies and approaches that are useful in everyday learning.
Every learner has their own strengths, needs and learning profile. Teaching is tailored accordingly.
Sessions are carefully planned and follow a clear, systematic approach with lots of opportunities for over-learning.
Building confidence is an important part of learning. I aim to create a positive environment where learners feel comfortable and encouraged.
What can we work on?
All sessions are multi-sensory and planned around the individual learner's needs and interests. Depending on the learner, sessions may support:
