Initial assessments
- Our assessments take about an hour
- It is relaxed and non-pressured, with very little writing involved
- Coloured overlays check to find the most helpful colour for you, as your screen background on the IDL programme
- We work out your current reading and spelling levels to decide where you need to start on the programme
- Then we discuss the results of the assessment with you and you can try IDL at the right level
Dyslexia Support Sessions
- We offer an hour of IDL, with support, each week
- Start on IDL at the correct level for you and work at a pace that suits you
- You can learn to touch-type, which helps you remember new words for reading and spelling
- Recording your voice and playing back helps develop fluency with reading
- Repetition allows learning to be retained
- Skills are built gradually and thoroughly
- We re-assess you when you have worked on IDL for a few months
- Improvements in both reading and spelling
- Increased confidence
