The Gift of Dyslexia: The Book that Completely Changed my World

In this episode of The Dyslexia Life Hacks Show, Matt is talking to Armelle McGeachie, founder of Girls with Dyslexia.
During this podcast you will find out that Armelle had a feeling that she was dyslexic from a very young age, but did get a diagnosis until age 21. Interestingly, she had already been employing lots of dyslexic, friendly tactics that she had found through self-discovery during her time at school, particularly during her GCSEs. But having the official diagnosis allowed her to get the appropriate coaching, making her final year of university a lot easier.

In this enlightening episode, Matthew delves into an eye-opening conversation with Jenny Sandler, a versatile specialist teacher and consultant who champions education for children with dyslexia, autism, and ADHD. With a remarkable career journey spanning children’s educational TV at BBC to private consultancy, Jenny brings invaluable insights into home education, flexible learning, and the transformation driven by understanding individual learning styles. Discover real-life strategies and a fresh perspective on inclusive education. This episode is a must-listen for parents, educators, and anyone navigating the world of neurodiversity.
