Every child is different and problems can emerge in a range of areas from the social, emotional and behaviour to learning and study skills. These difficulties can range from the general to the very specific and gaining a clear understanding of their needs and the root cause of their difficulties is a vital first step in helping them. The following are some areas in which I can provide advice and support strategies:

  • Dyslexia (i.e. difficulties with reading, writing and spelling)

  • Dyscalculia (i.e. weakness with Maths)

  • Exam access arrangements 

  • Memory difficulties

  • Slow academic progress

  • Gifted and talented children

Communication
