I was lucky enough recently to be able to preview a working memory training video by Louise Selby. She really understands the workings of a classroom and what adaptations, resources and support helps. the dyslexic learner. There is a lot of information and different courses on her website.
She was also kind enough to have a look at this blog/site and gave me some advice how to make the content better, which was fab! If anyone else has any suggestions of anything they want added on here, what would improve this site, or if you notice any inaccuracies, then please send a message as I would really appreciate the feedback.
