We have just found out that my 15 yr son has dyslexia and needs someone to help with a treatment plan that I can follow. We live near Benidorm, any ideas?

Hi,

cant help you with a location, just wanted to let you know that its greate that they figured out it was dyslexia, and that you will get help. i was diagnosed when i was 11yo, and for many years i got special help in school. It can be hard at times, but in the end its worth it, you do get rid of most of the problems thru practise and doing the exrecises.

good luck

Hi! I'm a remedial reading tutor with my own non-commercial website about dyslexia www.dyslexics.org.uk

I suggest you have a look at the following programmes. The first one is free, the second one is being written by a colleague and should be ready in September. She says that it is not at all 'pink and fluffy' and should be suitable for all ages.

Stairway to Reading: FREE, online, remedial tutoring programme (Canadian) www.societyforqualityeducation.org/stairway.html
A one-on-one remedial reading program for students of any age who have already received some reading instruction but who are struggling with reading. Caution UK users: there are some N.American accent/sound differences.

Debbie Hepplewhite's international, online teaching programme, available in September. www.syntheticphonics.com/programme.html

Hope that helps
