About Me

I am passionate about teaching and empowering young people with a range of learning strengths and challenges, but I am particularly interested in specific learning differences such as dyslexia and the opportunities presented by this in modern society. As a dyslexic thinker who has raised three sons, two of whom are dyslexic, I am very aware of the impact such neurodiversity can have on an individual their learning journey and well-being.

My Experience

Over the past thirty years, I have worked as a class teacher, SEN teacher, Special Needs Coordinator (SENDCo), Early Years Lead and Family Support Worker.

My Qualifications

• 1990 BEd(Hons)
• 2021 Mindfulness Practitioner Diploma
• 2022 Postgraduate Certificate in Specific Learning Difficulties
• 2023 AMBDA
• 2023 PATOSS Specific Learning Difficulties Assessment Practising Certificate (APC)

My Availability

The dyslexic brain processes information differently. This difference results in strengths like critical thinking, creativity and communication skills BUT challenges with reading, writing, spelling, rote learning, memory and concentration. Identifying an individual's strengths and challenges is key to their success in education and employment.

Dyslexia Thrive offers bespoke tuition and full diagnosis assessment services, local to you.
