Help and Ideas

I’ve often said that TRT training is like learning to drive out of a book; you learn much more once you get behind the wheel.

Choosing good reading material and helping young people who don’t “fit the mould” are two things that come with experience. Here are some pages designed to help you with both these things.

You might also want to look at “Working with an Adult Visual Learner” 1 and 2 for specific lessons with a dyslexic adult.
