My years of experience tutoring and diagnosing dyslexia led me to conclude that the main obstacle to learning is caused by emotional barriers. I found that many adults with dyslexia doubted their learning abilities and that even when they had improved their literacy skills, their self-esteem and confidence remained low. My desire to address these issues led me to a wealth of training in hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching. By integrating personal development techniques into my work in the dyslexia field, I found that students made better progress and began to enjoy learning.
To reflect my discovery that effective learning happens when people feel relaxed and positive, I call this approach Learning Freedom®. This coaching method reflects my own discoveries of processes and models that help you develop better approaches to learning. It teaches you how to improve your relationship with yourself so you become an expert at self-motivation and feel inspired to take positive action.
As a Learning Freedom® Coach, I offer processes and techniques that allow you to dissolve barriers to success and make progress learning new skills. Every learning task can be broken down into a series of steps and when you are able to do this with a relaxed state of mind, you will store these processes easily and remember them at the right time. I will help you understand how you learn most effectively, allowing you to develop a greater feeling of self-confidence in your abilities.
If you are considering working with me, this probably means that you have experienced difficulties with learning in the past, or are currently feeling stressed about learning challenges you are facing. You may not have been formally diagnosed with dyslexia and this does not mean you cannot benefit from Learning Freedom Coaching™.
I will help you dissolve any anxieties you hold about learning and overcome patterns of procrastination. By developing a more optimistic perspective, you will be able to access feelings of enthusiasm and take positive action to achieve your goals.
As well as using these techniques with my clients, I offer a licensed programme in Learning Freedom Coaching™ to share these techniques with other practitioners who work with dyslexic adults. Click here to find out more about the training programme.
