Shari Lynn G.

1 Dyslexia lesson

Amanda helped me to have a better understanding of dyslexia; the different types and how to assess a student who may have dyslexia. We discussed the strategies to use in order to make the student's learning experience a positive one. She also shared how to use the student's other senses to make reading easier for students with dyslexia.
Carrie G.

121 Dyslexia lessons

We are seeing Sheryl for specific dyslexia tutoring using the Barton Method. Sheryl has obtained a significant amount training in dyslexia specific reading intervention (that will also work well for other children who have difficulty reading).This type of tutoring is rare to find in our area (Central/Southern IL). Sheryl interacts very well with my 8 year old son who does have some issues with focus. He seems to respond to her methods well. She makes the lesson fun and interactive.
Demi D.

53 Dyslexia lessons

She has broad experience with the challenges that dyslexia presents which is apparent in her comprehension of the challenge. My daughter feels Lucia has unique compassion and understanding for dyslexics, without being dyslexic herself. It can be very difficult for a person to grasp the world of dyslexia and its nuances — Lucia strives to get to a place of understanding her student’s difficulties and in the process is very affirming. Affirmation goes a long way to bolstering up their confidence.
