About me

APC Number 500003310-IF9225

I am a qualified teacher and specialist assessor with over 25 years of experience in education. I am a professional member of both the Dyslexia Guild and PATOSS (Professional Association of Teachers of Students with Specific Learning Difficulties). I hold a current Assessment Practising Certificate (APC) which enables me to diagnose Dyslexia and make recommendations for access arrangements for formal examinations.

I also carry out assessments of Educational need, where areas of strength and weakness are identified, so that the correct support can be put in place.

About
What Our Said

What clients have said

“Anne recently assessed my daughter for dyslexia and the whole process was seamless, with great communication throughout. I was especially pleased that Anne put my daughter at ease on the day, explaining the process and making her feel comfortable. The report was very thorough and explained the terminology and nature of the tests to help me understand, and the recommendations were very helpful. You can tell that Anne not only has the knowledge and experience, but she genuinely cares and wants to help. Anne also managed to pick up on aspects of my daughter’s personality and how this affects her learning, despite only spending a few hours with her. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Anne as a dyslexia assessor.”

Dyslexia

If your child struggles with literacy, an assessment can often be the first step in understanding the obstacles that are getting in the way of their progress and the key to unlocking their talents and self-belief. A diagnostic assessment is required for a formal diagnosis of dyslexia and would entail additional information being provided from home and school to obtain a holistic profile of the individual’s strengths and weaknesses.

Assessment Inolve

What does the assessment involve?

A dyslexia assessment involves:

Pre-assessment 

Initial contact over email to discuss whether an assessment is right for you.

A pre-assessment questionnaire will then be carried out to gather information about the learner. Information will also be requested from the learner’s school.

Please note it is recommended that a vision and hearing test has been carried out in the last two years to rule out any other causes for difficulties with literacy. 

Assessment 

The assessment takes approximately 3 hours to complete and will include a wide range of tests such as attainment, phonological processing, spelling, working memory, and visual/verbal underlying abilities.  The assessment will be completed at my private residence. 

Post Assessment 

After the assessment, a summary of the initial findings will be given within 48 hours via email.

The final report (25 sides of A4 approx) will explain the results in detail. Strengths and areas for development are outlined, and strategies and interventions to support your child are given. If a profile of dyslexia is found, the assessment offers an official diagnosis and can be used for exam access requirements. Please note that this can take up to 3 weeks to receive the full report but it is usually less.

After you receive the report. A post-report discussion is available (if required over phone/email) to discuss and answer any final questions.
