'A Taste of Davis' Discovery Series for Parents
Dear Parent,
So your child is struggling at school, and you don’t know why. Perhaps your child has been given a label such as dyslexia. But the label doesn’t come with reasons and explanations.
Are you finding that questions like these are churning around in your mind?
-
Does this mean my child is stupid?
-
What does it mean for his future career?
-
How can I best support his homework?
-
When should I be strict; when understanding?
-
What does it mean when he comes home upset?
-
Am I being too interfering in my engagement with his school? Or too laid back?
Some parents commission an educational psychologist assessment but then struggle to understand the scores and terms used in the assessment report.
Some find that they are explaining their child’s learning profile and needs to his teachers over and over again at parent-teacher meetings.
Many worry that, although they feel they understand their child, they don’t feel they understand his dyslexia.
Just as the hardworking dyslexic child is left with feelings of inadequacy after every class test, so his caring, dedicated parents are left feeling ineffectual when they sit down to help him with his homework.
Would you like to:
-
Understand the reasons why some bright children may struggle to acquire basic academic skills;
-
Use these insights to make an incisive difference to the abilities, well-being and prospects of your child;
-
Find out how to turn dyslexia into an asset, even when it has been a problem;
-
Understand what’s going on if your child has problems in one or more area such as: hand-eye coordination; focus; sitting still; learning from consequences; reading people.
'A Taste of Davis Discovery Series' is a complimentary series designed to offer insights, approaches and strategies to assist you achieving any or all of these goals. It is crafted from the findings of 'Why Tyrannosaurus But Not If?', a culmination of thousands of specialist hours spent observing and working with both 'typical' and 'atypical' learners.
And it's free.
