I am a specialist teacher and assessor of learners with Specific Learning Difficulties recognised by the Professional Association of Teachers of Students with Specific Learning Difficulties (PATOSS) and the British Dyslexia Association.
My experience...
I have gained experience working in primary, secondary and college environments and therefore, I am familiar with the demands placed upon children and young people, at different ages, in education.
Recently, I worked for 13 years at Richard Huish College (Taunton) as a Specific Learning Difficulty Co-ordinator; the key role was to complete individual assessments with students and to implement a support programme to meet their particular requirements. In addition I applied for exam concessions and completed diagnostic assessments of students with Dyslexia to apply for DSA (Disabled Students’ Allowance) in preparation for university.
While working in this capacity I realised the potential benefits of learning to touch type which are infinite. Consequently, we now teach children from age 8 upwards recommending early intervention especially if handwriting is a hindrance to self-development. For more information please refer to the section on Support Services (Touch typing).
