About South Manchester Dyslexia
Specialist teaching with a supportive approach
I am a qualified teacher and Specialist Dyslexia Teacher, providing individual dyslexia teaching and support for children and young people aged 4–16.
My approach is centred on understanding the individual learner, recognising their strengths and providing structured, specialist teaching to help them develop their skills and confidence.
I believe that children learn best when they feel understood, supported and encouraged to recognise their own progress.
My approach
Multi-Sensory
Using sight, sound, touch, and movement at the same time, helping to build stronger brain connections whilst learning.
Individual
Every learner has their own strengths, needs and learning profile. Teaching is tailored accordingly.
Structured
Sessions are carefully planned and follow a clear, systematic approach.
Supportive
Building confidence is an important part of learning. I aim to create a positive environment where learners feel comfortable and encouraged.
Practical
I want learners and families to leave sessions with strategies and approaches that are useful in everyday learning.
