I'll let you into a secret.

I love training schools in strategies to support learners with dyslexia in class. But I love it even more when I can give them tools to do it for themselves.

How are you using All about Dyslexia?

Morph Mastery for Tutors is designed for teachers and tutors who want the knowledge, pedagogy and adaptable resources to use morphology confidently in their own context.

I love this podcast. This episode really touched me - so I am sharing as a must listen for anyone interested in humanity, community and compassion, never mind inclusion an neurodiversity.

I hear this kind of feedback all the time. Have you tried a morphological approach for learners with SEND? It is a game changer!

Why not try my new course with Patoss - Morph Mastery for Tutors.

Morph Mastery Book 2 is in the orbit!

Morph Mastery for Groups is well underway. The appendices are the hardest bit because of the extensive word lists, rules and resources - I have to get them just right.

What would you like to see in the new book?
