Hello, I'm Sharon
I have over 25 years of teaching experience, including 15+ years in Special Educational Needs (SEND) and I'm still passionate about helping individuals achieve their learning goals. I believe self-knowledge is power, and an assessment delivers the data-driven strategy to bridge the gap between effort and results.
A dyslexia diagnostic assessment uses a range of carefully selected tests to explore unique learning strengths and challenges. With these valuable insights you can develop personalised strategies that maximise strengths and minimise the impact of academic, workplace and organisational challenges.
Furthermore, a positive diagnosis can unlock access to support that can significantly improve academic and professional performance.
Dyslexia diagnostic assessment
How does a diagnostic assessment work?
1. We start by gathering important information to understand the client's unique learning journey. This step is as important as the assessment itself.
2. Next, the client participates in a series of test activities.
3. Finally, I provide a detailed report featuring personalised strategies for progress, followed by a feedback session to discuss the results.
