Specialist dyslexia support and tuition

Discover our comprehensive range of services, designed to empower individuals with dyslexia. We offer personalised tuition and thorough assessments to help unlock potential.

Getting started with Dyslexia Support

Our process is designed to ensure that support is tailored to each individual's needs. It begins with an initial consultation to discuss strengths, challenges, and educational history. This is followed by an optional screening or full diagnostic assessment to build a detailed understanding of the individual's literacy profile.

Our personalised approach

Following the assessment, a personalised support plan is developed, outlining clear targets and recommended strategies. Regular specialist tuition sessions focus on developing literacy skills, confidence, and independence, with ongoing monitoring and feedback. The aim is to ensure every individual receives the right support to achieve meaningful and lasting progress.

Our Specialist Dyslexia Services

As a Level 5 and Level 7 qualified Dyslexia Tutor and Assessor, I provide specialist, evidence-based support for children and young people with literacy difficulties and dyslexia. My services include comprehensive dyslexia assessments, personalised intervention programmes, one-to-one tuition, and practical recommendations for home and school settings.

Diagnostic dyslexia assessments.

Our comprehensive diagnostic dyslexia assessments are designed to identify an individual's unique learning profile, highlighting both strengths and areas of difficulty.

The assessment process uses a range of standardised diagnostic tests, alongside information from parents, schools, and the individual, to build a detailed understanding of literacy development and learning needs.

Assessment findings are interpreted in line with the Delphi Definition of Dyslexia (2025), a consensus definition developed by leading researchers and practitioners in the field.

The assessment explores key areas associated with dyslexia, including:

  • Phonological processing
  • Reading accuracy and fluency
  • Spelling and written language skills
  • Rapid naming and processing speed
  • Working memory
  • Orthographic processing (recognising and remembering written words)
