Dyslexia tuition that helps dyslexics survive and thrive

Individual Tuition

At Helen Arkell specialist individual specialist tuition is available for dyslexic individuals of all ages with teaching programmes devised for each individual based on assessment. Study Skills Tuition may be also be arranged in intensive, individualised, programmes.

We employ a team of specialist teachers who have trained in teaching both children and adults with Specific Learning Difficulties. Tuition can be arranged through the Centre to take place at school, college or at the Centre. For tuition at a school or college, we require a minimum number of pupils to be taught on the same day. An individualised approach is adopted for all tuition and is not restricted to any particular method.

A multi-sensory teaching programme is devised for each pupil. Auditory and visual skills are considered so that teaching is directed to building on strengths whilst improving weak areas. Poor motor co-ordination and speech and language difficulties are also taken into account.
