About
I visit students in their own homes for Danks Davis Dyslexia Sessions. The Danks Davis Dyslexia Method helps improve skills in spelling, reading, writing and comprehension.
The method comprises of Seven Steps to Literacy Success, starting with Brain Gym Exercises followed by creating a list of words the student needs to work on. We then work together to find the best ways of remembering the spellings and meanings which work for each student as an individual.
The Danks Davis Dyslexia Method is a multi-sensory method which also involves the teacher and student swapping roles for some time. This keeps the session light-hearted and fun, as well as being a very valuable way of learning and remembering.
The Danks Davis Dyslexia Method was developed by an inspirational dyslexic lady called Zannie Danks Davis. I was fortunate to have her as a mentor from when I trained with her in 2006 to when she sadly passed away in 2014. I continue Zannie’s legacy by helping students to progress and gain confidence. I also tutor online, and I am a Piano Teacher who has taught many dyslexic people to play the piano.
I visit students in their homes for Piano and Music Theory Lessons. I specialise in teaching the ABRSM syllabus, as well as being experienced in Early Childhood Education, Dyslexia, and Special Educational Needs.
Piano Lessons are tailored to the needs and wishes of the individual. I am always happy to teach students to learn to play their favourite songs and music. I encourage them to learn how to compose and improvise and learn how to write their own songs if they are interested.
I am a qualified Early Childhood Practitioner and I teach Preschool Music from age 3.
I am a qualified Dyslexia Tutor so I have taught many of my dyslexic students to play the piano in addition to helping them with spelling, reading, writing and comprehension.
