About the Event
Before the workshop, please watch THIS VIDEO about the Davis approach and the workshop.
The Davis Dyslexia Programme was developed by Ronald Davis to overcome his own learning difficulties. Davis sees dyslexia as a talent. It is the ability to think multi-dimensionally, to shift or alter mental and physical perceptions. This explains why so many dyslexics are creative, offer unusual solutions to problems, are very intuitive or have vivid imaginations.
The Davis Dyslexia Programme helps the individual to discover his innate gift, and to apply it to the learning difficulty. In this way, the blockages to effective learning are removed. Clients are shown how to clear up confusions regarding letters, numbers, words and language symbols and are aided in the process by the use of clay.
The Gift of Dyslexia Workshop is a comprehensive introduction to the Davis Dyslexia techniques for parents and/or professionals.
