Assessment
Megan is qualified to carry out a full diagnostic cognitive assessment of children and young people, with a view to diagnosing dyslexia. She can signpost and give recommendations for school and home, regardless of the outcome. She assesses children and young people between the ages of 8 years and 18 years 11 months. Technically, this could be done earlier but the tests themselves are more suited to eight years old and above. Please discuss this with Megan as it might be that there are stepping stones which could be fulfilled earlier.
Prior to the assessment we send out questionnaires to the student’s school and family to gain an understanding of the difficulties that they face.
Full Diagnostic Assessment which takes half a day or approximately 3.5hrs (with a couple of breaks!), including a .pdf copy of the report, is £400. The written report includes the full findings and how they are impacting the student’s learning, along with recommendations for the school, home and a specialist tutor (should one be needed) to support the student. Once the report is written and the family have had time to read it fully, a complimentary meeting may be booked to discuss the results.
Access Arrangements Assessment
Access arrangements can be part of the Assessment service above, or, if a school (or parent) wishes to pursue separate access arrangements recommendations for Year 9s and above, please contact Megan to discuss the context and for pricing.
Tutoring
One-to-one tutoring for dyslexics and for students with literacy difficulties is available up to 18 years 11 months of age. There is also the potential for adult tutoring and you can discuss your needs and requirements with Megan. Tutoring sessions are in person but can be online if preferred. Shorter sessions (at a reduced rate) can be discussed.
Tutoring is priced at £35 per hour based on a structured multi-sensory teaching plan tailored to the individual’s needs. The first session comprises the assessments required to formulate the teaching plan.
Curriculum Catch-up
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we are offering curriculum catch-up sessions for students Year 4 to Year 8 in all subjects. Other ages can be discussed. Megan is happy to teach up to four students of the same year-group together for curriculum catch-up with the cost split between them accordingly. Catch-up tutoring is £35 per hour.
