Lois Letchford gives the gift of reading to children with learning disabilities
My special guest shares her passion for teaching children with learning disabilities how to read. Sit back, relax, and enjoy our lively conversation about reading in its many forms.\nLois Letchford\u2019s dyslexia came to light at the age of 39, when she faced teaching her seven-year-old non-reading son, Nicholas. Examining her reading failure caused her to adapt and change lessons for her son. The results were dramatic. Lois qualified as a reading specialist to use her non-traditional background, multi-continental experience and passion to assist other failing students. Her teaching and learning have equipped her with a unique skill set and perspective. As a teacher, she considers herself a \u201cliteracy problem-solver.\u201d\nReversed: A Memoir is her first book. In this story, she details her dyslexia and the journey of her son\u2019s dramatic failure in first grade. She tells of the twist and turns that promoted her passion and her son\u2019s dramatic academic turn-a-round - as in 2018 he received his Ph.D.\nReversed: A Memoir can be purchased at the following link:\nhttps://amzn.to/31KZwHL\nConnect with Lois at the following links: https://www.loisletchford.com/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/loiseletchford/\nhttps://twitter.com/LetchfordLois\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/loisletchford/\nVisit www.everyday-excellence.com\nand use promo code Inspirational Journeys to get 10% off any product on the site.\nSupport this podcast with a monthly donation:\nhttps://anchor.fm/inspirational-journeys/support\nor you can give a one-time donation via PayPal at:\nhttps://paypal.me/annHarrisonBarnes?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US
