Dyslexia or Being Right Brained



Dyslexia Or Being Right-brained

This is our companion book to Dyslexia:Spelling

This book is an introduction to our expanding understanding of dyslexia, its causes, learning problems and teaching solutions. It outlines methods and solutions for teaching dyslexics abstract concepts such as arithmetic, mathematics, sequencing, cause & effect, telling time, understanding weights and measurements.

We have refined our methods and techniques after assessing and tutoring many dyslexic students over the years. It is available in both hard-copy (93 pages) and electronic (ebook/PDF) format. Our other books courses and e-lessons are available for purchase through our Webstore
