Description

Welcome to this course on dyslexia therapy. We’re sure that you’ll both enjoy it and find it useful to better understand the nature of dyslexia as a condition and the treatment options that are available to improve the daily lives of dyslexia sufferers.

The course is comprehensive and covers every aspect of dyslexia therapy. It is suitable for people who wish to learn more about the condition, but it is focused towards those people who wish to engage in the practice of dyslexia therapy. As such, you will have access to an enormous amount of resources and practical activities that will help you with your studies.

Although this course is suitable for anyone who wishes to know more about dyslexia, it is mainly focused towards informing those who want to engage in dyslexia therapy. To that end, we’ll spend a fair amount of time on the nuts and bolts of the different aspect of dyslexia. It’s been our intention, however, to keep this course light on theory and oriented towards practical engagement with the lived experience of dyslexia and the various ways those with dyslexia can manage the condition.

The course, along with all of my other courses, are fully accredited and you’ll be awarded certification on completion.
