Dyslexic teenagers have too often spent years in an education system that makes them believe they are stupid. As a result, it is easy for them to have pitifully low expectations of what they can achieve in formal exams.
When my eldest child Amelia was in Year 9 (14 years old), we assumed she would need to choose a less academic route in life. Amelia found school so hard, we were keen not to put any additional pressure on her to achieve impressive grades.
Two years later, Amelia amazed us all with her fantastic GCSE results. How did she turn things around in such a brief time?
She learned to use technologies and strategies that helped boost her results. With each improved grade her confidence and self-belief increased, motivating her to try even harder. It became a victorious circle. By the time she took her GCSE’s she had figured out she was smart, but that she learned differently. Since then, Amelia has gone from strength to strength, she is now on track for a first-class honours degree.
Based on the experience of helping my own teenagers achieve more I felt compelled to pass on what worked to other families. I designed the Touch Typing & Technology for Academic Success Remote course to do this. It not only equips dyslexics to achieve and perhaps more importantly, it increases their confidence and aspirations.
These Google review show how the course has helped two different students recently.
If you are still unsure why not take a look at the many positive comments from both parents and students, plus the typing progress results.

Don't go another school year without this vital skill
Please be aware that:
There is no other course like it that gets impressive results so quickly and cost-effectively.
The next opportunity for students under 12, will be Easter 2022 at the earliest
(I run shorter courses throughout the year for teens who can pick up touch typing quicker.
Younger children benefit from having a long school vacation to embed muscle memory, without term time commitments.)
