Does your child have literacy difficulties or dyslexic tendencies?

[teacher_em]

I am studying the OCR Diploma Level 5 Teaching students with specific learning difficulties/Dyslexia. I am already a qualified primary school teacher however I am furthering my studies as I throughly enjoy teaching students with literacy difficulties. I completed a short course with Dyslexia Action earlier this year and have had 6 weeks work experience at a specialist school for children with dyslexia and cooccuring difficulties such as dyspraxia.

As part of the course I need to work 12 hours with ONE student in Key stage 1 or 2. This child needs to have quite a few literacy difficulties and/or dyslexic tendencies and not be diagnosed with dyslexia.

I am looking for someone who can come to my house in SE22 on Thursdays or Fridays around 5:15-6:15pm starting from January 2014. Informal assessments will need to take place before this in order for me to plan a scheme of work and then the lesson plans (home visits can be made for this part). The family must be agreement with one session being filmed and then sent off so that my teaching can be observed. They must also commit to all 12 hours.

Specialist tuition for dyslexia is about ?40 per hour however I am offering these 12 lessons at ?25 per hour as I will be in training. Tuition can be continued after the 12 week committment still for only ?25 per hour.

Please get in touch if you know someone who might be suitable and also to find out more information.
