“Since working with Anne as a Dyslexia Specialist Teacher over the last six months, my daughter Elaine has gone up three reading levels in school. Her confidence in her ability to read and spell has grown significantly, and she now approaches her schoolwork with much more self-belief. Elaine loves going to see Anne and is proud that she can now spell ‘autobiography’ on her spelling test!”
