Special Education is one of my top subjects! Am considered an expert in dyslexia. I know of other special ed issues that can coexhist. I help you to understand the difficulties your child has, and what can be done about them. Some have coexisting auditory processing and/or visual processing disorders. I teach you what those are, and what can be done about them. I teach you who can help you identify these problems and make the appropriate referrals. I can pick out the dyslexic after after meeting with students and determine that they are dyslexic, then the diagnostic work confirms they are. I have also been correct about the child having ADD/ADHD and may have an auditory processing disorder and/or a visual processing disorder. If I feel I am not able to help with another disability, I will make a refer to the appropriate organization or individual who may be able to help you. I can teach you the overview about special education law.
One-on-one, sequential, multisensory, and repetitive approach.
