Parents
Are you concerned about your child’s literacy/English development?
​
Are you unsure about how to help your child?
​
It can be overwhelming and distressing for parents when their child is struggling. And, it can be difficult to know how to help.
I can help both you and your child.
First and foremost, your child will receive a personalised curriculum that is explicit, sequential and evidence-based. I will give real time feedback to you and your child and adapt my teaching to your child's needs. I will provide regular updates on their progress.
​
In addition, I can:
​
-
Provide suggestions for helping your child at home.
-
Advocate for you and your child within their educational setting.
-
If required, I can recommend further assessments with other professionals such as clinical psychologists, speech pathologists and/or occupational therapists.
