Rants and musings about dyslexia, learning disabilities and other challenges.
About Me
- Kathy
- I am a consultant for people with learning disabilities and have been teaching in individualized reading clinics for the past 11 years here in Canada. I am also a learning consultant in an independent distributed learning school. I left the public school system when it became impossible to offer instruction at the intensity level and duration prescribed in research literature. I am now a passionate advocate for families struggling to get their learners' needs met in the school system.
Why I screech
I work with children with severe learning disabilities, and I see alarming gaps in the education of these vulnerable students. I find many things in the field of special education "crazy making", and I just need to screech some times! Feel free to join me.
