Description
I have a Master's degree in psychology with an emphasis on learning disabilities. I specialized in cognitive and neuropsychology, looking at how the brain learns and what we can do to help improve the root of the learning problems. I worked for 15 years as an educational therapist before starting Wired2Learn Academy, a school that serves only children with learning disabilities. We serve children with dysgraphia and have programs that specifically target fluency and automaticity. We also have programs to improve the other areas of the brain that are critical to writing: executive functioning, language, working memory, and spatial processing.
