About Me
About Me

I'm Anne, a qualified Dyslexia Specialist Teacher and Exam Access Arrangements Assessor, with several years of experience helping individuals overcome learning challenges. My approach is tailored, structured, and multi-sensory, empowering learners of all ages to unlock their full potential.


Based in the heart of Lincolnshire, I live with my son and our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Lily, who often adds a calming presence to sessions. With a degree in Linguistics and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), a Level 5 SpLD teaching qualification, and ADG accreditation from The Dyslexia Guild, I am dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of those I teach.


As a proud member of The Dyslexia Guild and The British Psychological Society (BPS), I am committed to upholding their high standards whilst providing dedicated support for individuals with dyslexia. I actively engage in continuous professional development and stay up to date with the latest research to maintain my professional status and deliver informed, effective support. Inspired by my family’s experiences with dyslexia and autism, I am passionate about providing personalised, multi-sensory strategies that build confidence and enable success for every learner I support.
