Jessica - Age 12
“This was the moment I knew!... Before I went to Jayne I thought I couldn’t achieve anything, now I think - I CAN DO ANYTHING!”
Year 11 Dean - M. Portman
"There is a definite difference in Jessica. She is more confident and is progressing well. This student entered our school 6 years below her chronological age. After continuous struggles - she took your course and had six months of supportive tuition - her Reading age (with Comprehension) has improved by 4 years. We continue to see improvements"

Dyslexia Melbourne FAQ
Why would you call dyslexia a gift!?
You may have heard people saying Dyslexia or neurodivergent thinking is a gift. This is because dyslexia often comes with unique strengths. People with dyslexia tend to be big-picture thinkers, creative problem-solvers, and highly visual learners. Once they understand how their brain works and get the right tools, these differences can become real advantages. What once felt like a struggle can turn into a powerful strength - and that’s where the “gift” truly lies. You can read more on Dyslexia Gifts and research on the Davis website
