Learning Ally's Spotlight on Dyslexia

  • Sue was extremely excited to be presenting a session at the Learning Ally’s Virtual Conference – Spotlight on Dyslexia, June 5, 2020.  She had no idea it was a worldwide audience, over 9,000 people registered.  The organisation has permission to scan any book and attach an audio recording to it, and apparently they had requests for Fish Don’t Climb Trees to be recorded.  They give audio books to their learning challenged members for free along with a scanned version of the text, with a highlighter that shows you where you are.

  • Her session will be available on-demand session through September 30, 2020 to earn up to 16 CE Certificates. Click here to register
