Your Dyslexia Advocate – Lorraine Hightower
If you are concerned about your child, suspect they learn differently, have a diagnosis of “dyslexia,” or you simply don’t know where to start, I can help.
I have been exactly where you are.
Ten years ago, I was faced with the harsh reality that if I didn’t step in, my bright, capable and creative son was going to be lost in the public school system...I heard the diagnosis of dyslexia, ADHD and dysgraphia… I knew with these labels, he’d have to fight every single school day...I watched him struggle to learn basic academic skills like reading, spelling, writing and math facts.
​
I felt overwhelmed and helpless. I worried about my son’s future. Would he ever be able to learn? Would he be able to pursue his dreams?
​
The answers are YES and YES!
You do not have to lower your expectations for your child if they have a Specific Learning Disability like dyslexia...

Not Sure Where to Start?
