Jumpstarting™ Learning Skills
Testimonials
The Jumpstarting System will give you the tools to help your child develop the essential skill of mental imagery.
Once this has been developed effectively, your child will be on the way to becoming a successful, confident and independent learner.
The Jumpstarting™ System stands apart from phonics-based programmes as they tend to focus on the sound of the word and rules, rather than.
Is dyslexia a disability or a discrepancy?
We believe that dyslexia is not a disability, but an expression of neurodiversity: that it points to a discrepancy between how a child is being taught and how they learn.
We believe that The Jumpstarting™ System goes a long way to addressing this.
Dyslexia: Jumpstarting™ Word Skills for Parents
Our online dyslexia course for parents teaches you how to help your child to overcome their learning difficulties.
Our ground-breaking visual system will help your child become a successful speller, read more fluently and improve their handwriting.
Jumpstarting™ Word & Number Skills for Educators
Our unique visual system provides an additional way to help students who are struggling to learn despite good quality teaching and resources.
Jumpstarting™ Learning Face-to-Face Coaching
There may be several reasons why people might prefer not to do an online course, so we provide the opportunity to work face to face with us or with another Jumpstarting™ Learning Coach.
Quite often, one or both parents have also struggled with reading and/or spelling. We find that by going through the process with their child, those parents are able to overcome their learning challenges too!
Should I get my child assessed?
Arguments for assessment:
-
Gives you and your child an explanation for their difficulties.
-
You may feel a great sense of relief when you realise your child is not ‘stupid’, ‘lazy’ or ‘unmotivated’.
-
It can open up access to support e.g learning support, specialist teacher (this will depend on individual schools and local or national government policy.)
-
Your child might be entitled to get: assistive technology such as a computer and software, extra time in exams, breaks during exams, reader and/or scribe in class or exams, etc.
-
Your child might be offered a reduced time table and exemptions from subjects such as foreign languages.
Arguments against assessment:
-
Your child may begin to identify with the label – might use it as an excuse, “I can’t do that because I’m dyslexic”, preventing them from attempting certain tasks.
-
Your child may become too reliant on the support in school. This can become a crutch, encourage dependency and it may be harder to develop into an independent learner.
-
If your child’s school does not offer the assessment free of charge, it can be expensive to go to a private assessor.
-
In the UK and Ireland, dyslexia is seen as a ‘high incident’ issue and often an assessment does not automatically mean additional support as the school is expected to already be dealing with it.
