Dyslexia Tuition

Tuition is offered at a reasonable cost and Sarah believes in communication between all parties as this aids the child’s progress. Where possible she likes parents to observe the first few lessons so that they can gain insight into the tuition process and the multi-sensory methods used.
If parents prefer they can be present at all lessons.
