Why get an assessment?

A dyslexia assessment provides clarity and understanding. It can identify specific learning strengths and challenges, explain difficulties that may have gone unnoticed, and open the door to tailored support.

Whether for school, university, or the workplace, an assessment ensures that the right strategies and accommodations are put in place, helping individuals feel confident, supported, and able to reach their full potential.

"We first met Monika when she assessed our daughter for dyslexia in the summer of 2024. The report Monika provided was detailed and proved hugely important in guiding our subsequent engagement with our daughter's school and in developing a programme of support. Alongside the report, Monika gave us so much wider insight and guidance that proved invaluable.

More recently, we have asked Monika to help support our daughter, through targeted tutoring, focusing on biology. Through this, our daughter's confidence in learning has increased notably, and as a result, there has been a marked improvement in her school work and study, which has then resulted in further confidence.

We cannot thank Monika enough for her support and guidance, which goes far beyond what we expected. We would have no hesitation in recommending her to others who are looking for help and support with children who may be struggling with dyslexia."

Iain, Parent

"We were very impressed with the service provided by Monika. From the initial contact to receiving the final report, her professionalism was outstanding. The assessment was thorough and Monika managed to put our child at complete ease during the sessions.

The final report is incredibly detailed, clear, and insightful, highlighting both strengths and weaknesses. The report has been instrumental in gaining necessary support.

Highly recommended."
