Unlock Your Potential with Unlocking Dyslexia

Specialist Dyslexia Tuition

Term time specialist one-to-one tuition is available for primary and secondary aged children in Bath and the surrounding areas with dyslexia or literacy-based learning difficulties.  Unlocking Dyslexia recognises that every child is unique: sessions are individually planned to target your child's specific learning needs whilst embracing their own interests to make sessions fun and engaging.   Children will flourish if they feel safe, motivated and high in self-esteem.  Unlocking Dyslexia offers a holistic approach, focusing on developing literacy skills as well as building confidence and independence. Tuition can therefore take place in your own home or at Unlocking Dyslexia according to the child’s preference.  


The first tuition session focuses on getting to your child whilst conducting an informal assessment of their current abilities in reading, writing and spelling.  Following the initial meeting, this information will be used to create a personalised support plan with both long and short term targets which can be shared with their school setting.  These will be reviewed at the end of each term.  


Once the initial assessment has taken place, sessions are planned to be structured, cumulative and multi-sensory whilst progressing at the child’s pace. Each session will follow the child's individual programme, focusing on developing their phonemic and phonological awareness, spelling, reading comprehension and fluency and writing skills (handwriting, grammar and punctuation).   The sessions will incorporate a range of interactive activities and end with a fun game to reinforce learning.

Specialist Tuition is based on the Principles of Specialist Teaching

  • Structured and sequential –Sessions are designed to introduce both phonograms (letter sounds) and literacy concepts in a logical and structured sequence.  


  • Regularity, routine and review – Sessions are designed to encourage cumulative learning through overlearning whilst encouraging independence.   


  • Multi-sensory – Sessions are designed to stimulate as many pathways in the brain as possible, to engage the learner and retain interest. 


  • Phonic-based and a Morphological Approach - sessions are designed to help children gain a thorough knowledge of the correspondence between letters and sounds.  


  • Repetition and over-learning – sessions are designed to revise prior learning to help store new learning into long term memory.  


  • Developing Metacognition – sessions are designed to encourage the child to understand themselves as a learner and build their metacognitive skills 

 

Tuition sessions can be booked as 1 hour or 45 minutes sessions depending on the child.  Whilst some children are happy to learn for a full hour, for some children 45 minutes may be more appropriate, especially for younger children.
