In this lesson, Lisa Van Gemert (Gifted Guru) takes this as her starting point, providing educators with ideas for recognizing their students’ strengths while supporting students in the areas that are most challenging for them.

Ms. Van Gemert walks through each idea category by category:

    I thought this course gave a lot of good information on interventions and support for students with dyslexia. I also liked that there was an entire slide on things that will cause issues, this was helpful because off the bat it gave you things that will most likely not work with your student and to find other options.
