  A little bit about me…I first came across Davis Dyslexia Programme through a personal journey, my own son’s learning difficulties. The problems were obvious when he started school, it just wasn’t natural for him to read or write. He didn’t want to go to school, he would hide under the bed and cry and beg me not to send him there.I always wanted to “read him” to recovery, we tried lots of different courses, quick fixes and alternative lessons. We went to see an Educational Psychologist who said that he had a specific learning difficulty. (That doesn’t help much, when you’re desperately looking for a solution and know that already!)I really wanted to help my son… the Educational Psychologist wrote on a piece of paper dyslexia … she wasn’t officially allowed to write that, as being dyslexic wasn’t formally recognised like it is now.Thankfully, luck had called!I saw in the local paper that Ron Davis was doing a tour, he would be talking about his book called The Gift of Dyslexia. I thought, It isn’t a gift, it is awful… why is he calling it a gift, how on earth can it be called a gift!? Out of curiosity, I went along with my husband to hear what he had to say.Ron Davis educated us, that being dyslexic had nothing to do with lack of intelligence, that most people who had dyslexia tend to be very intelligent and quite creative in their thinking style. That a dyslexic persons visual thinking style was five times faster than a word thinker. It was a shining diamond moment – WOW this guy is AMAZING!The rest is history now… I’m very proud of my son, he was told he’d never read and what he has achieved with patience, persistence and a willingness to learn has been incredible.The people I help are children, teenagers and adults from all walks of life. I feel incredibly lucky to work in a career that is part of such positive change in people. http://dyslexiamelbourne.com/what-to-look-for-2/jayne@dyslexiamelbourne.com+61 420 305 405
