Supporting Dyslexic Students with Maths-with Judy Hornigold

From £3  · Online event

I have just come across details of an online training course ‘Supporting Dyslexic Students with Maths’ , which has been organised by West Yorkshire PATOSS. I thought it was too good to miss out on and wanted to let other educators know in case they also wanted to attend. Judy Hornigold is an independent education consultant specialising in dyslexia and dyscalculia, an Associate Tutor for the BDA and Edge Hill University  and she wrote the British Dyslexia Association’s courses on Dyscalculia so her name is very familiar to me. She has written a guide book for parents of children with dyslexia, two books of ready-made lessons for learners with dyscalculia, the dyscalculia pocketbook and Making Maths Visual and Tactile.
