This is a practical and accessible ‘go-to’ pocket guide for busy classroom teachers who want to better support dyslexic learners.
Claire Harvey brings a wealth of experience in training dyslexia specialists, and this expertise is evident throughout the book - you genuinely feel in safe and knowledgeable hands.
The author encourages thoughtful self-reflection, prompting readers to evaluate their current practice before introducing clear, realistic strategies. The tips are both practical and immediately implementable, making the book especially useful for teachers who want solutions they can apply straight away. I will be recommending this book to my Level 3 cohorts, and it will be added to their essential reading list for the course.
Time-pressed teachers and SENCOs wanting maximum-impact advice for dyslexia need look no further. This “little guide” is indeed gorgeously little and can be read in an afternoon, but it’s way more than a guide. I’d say it’s the nuts and bolts for any educator or parent wanting the headlines for supporting learners with dyslexia. Claire succinctly but expertly steers us through essential territory, from research-based definitions to supporting self-esteem, confidence and metacognition. The book is hype-free but rich in practical, doable high quality first teaching tips.
