Supporting your child on their learning journey.
What is learning support?
If your child has learning challenges, I can help.
Learning support is a term that covers a wide range of strategies and tools that will help your child learn the way they need to.
This can mean support for your child’s attention, processing needs, or work production. Sometimes, learning support is a specific intervention to help a child ‘get back on track’, sometimes it’s ‘specialist teaching’, sometimes it’s referred to as special education. However, the foundation is the same: finding out what is causing your child’s learning challenges, and helping them move ahead.
Learning Support is not tutoring for a specific subject.
As a trained special needs teacher and Educational Therapist, I have a wide range of skills to help your child. Each child has a unique learning profile and thus their learning programme will be created specifically to support them.
What is Educational Therapy?
“Educational therapy is the practice of providing personalised remedial instruction to children and adults with learning challenges, including, but not limited to, dyslexia, ADHD, executive functioning deficits, and language, visual and auditory processing issues. The ultimate goal of educational therapy is to foster development of self-confident, independent individuals who feel positively about themselves and their potential as lifelong learners.”
(The Association of Educational Therapists website.)
It is not psychotherapy or counselling.
As an educational therapist I use all of my training and experience in both special education and educational therapy to assess and develop interventions for your child.
Educational Therapy has its roots in Europe but is now more common in North America. I am a member of the Association of Educational Therapists.
