Dyslexia Solutions Cardiff

Testimonials

Dyslexia has affected me in a huge way. It really made me question if I was ever going to be as successful as others. Mrs Robinson always believed in me and gave me the boost I needed to become who I am today. She was the only teacher who understood me and actually took time in teaching me how to deal with my dyslexia. Mrs Robinson’s lessons helped me and others so much that we were able to take part more in other lessons.

Lorraine has helped me by firstly understanding where I needed help and then showing me how things could be broken down in ways I could understand. I still use these methods to this day by splitting words up to help me with my reading and spelling. Lorraine helped me not just with my skills but by helping me to understand that everyone learns differently and that it’s not the speed you do it at but that you get there in the end that’s important! Thank you Lorraine.

Lorraine was such a big help to me going through my school years, in not just my work but with my confidence as well. Lorraine would do group exercises and one to one work to help improve our work. I had teachers helping me in similar ways before but not many seemed to understand my dyslexia like Lorraine did. I had problems spelling and reading but both improved massively after having lessons with Lorraine, her unique ways of teaching kept me concentrating and enjoying the lessons. Lorraine would put the time into me and my work when other teachers wouldn’t. She was a great judge of knowing what we each needed to improve on individual, so no lesson was the same. She knew our strong point and our weak points. Myself and a few people who was in the same group with Lorraine still speak about how much she helped us and how well we all got on. I wasn’t confident in lessons before and I was quiet and shy and didn’t like work. By the end of working with Lorraine I felt like a completely different person in many different factors, not just my work!

               So a big thank you to Lorraine for everything you’ve done for me!
