Dyslexia Screener

A dyslexia screening offers a professional and accessible way to identify if you or your child show signs of dyslexia and whether further support is needed.

Available from age eight, these sessions provide an essential snapshot of your or your childs learning profile, helping to secure adjustments for school, the workplace, the driving theory test, and Access to Work applications.

My goal is to provide you with immediate clarity and expert guidance on the most effective next steps for your or your childs educational or professional journey.

Dyslexia Screening

Gaining Early Clarity

I offer Dyslexia screenings for individuals aged 8 and over, available both online and in person. A screening is an excellent starting point if you suspect that you or your child may have dyslexic tendencies, helping to identify whether further formal investigation is recommended.

Why Choose a Screening?

While a screening does not provide a formal diagnosis (which requires a full diagnostic assessment), it serves as a professional and accessible indicator of a person’s learning profile. A dyslexia screening can:

Identify whether you or your child require immediate intervention, targeted literacy support, or classroom adjustments.
Provide evidence for employers to implement simple, reasonable adjustments to help you manage your workload more effectively.
Support applications for Access to Work, helping you secure specialized software, coaching, or equipment to excel in your professional role.
Be used to access reasonable adjustments for the DVLA driving theory test, such as extra time or a reader.

My goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of your or your child’s literacy and cognitive processing profile. This provides the essential evidence needed to move forward with confidence, whether that involves implementing immediate support strategies or, where indicated, a referral to a specialist for a formal dyslexia diagnosis.

If you would like me to visit you for an in-person screening, a small additional travel fee may apply, which I will discuss with you during the booking process.

Testimonials

Belinda was my son's tutor all through primary and secondary school until his GCSE's, helping him to achieve grade 6 in English Literature, English Language and Maths. Belinda was very patient and supportive. We cannot thank Belinda enough for all her efforts over the years.

Belinda came to help my daughter with her maths as she was struggling. Belinda was professional, kind, patient and caring which is what you need during a 1-1 tutoring session. My daughter went on to pass her GCSE's. I would highly recommend Belinda to anyone struggling. She has since become a friend of the family.

We couldn't be happier with the support our daughter has received from her maths tutor Belinda. From the very beginning, she has created a calm, encouraging environment that helped build both her confidence and her understanding of the subject. What really stands out is her ability to explain complex topics in a clear, patient and engaging way. Lessons are always well-structured, tailored to her needs and paced perfectly so she never feels overwhelmed. Over time, we've seen a real improvement not only in her grades but also in her attitude towards maths - it's gone from a source of stress to something she approaches with much more confidence. Communication has also been excellent. We're always kept informed about her progress, strengths and areas to focus on, which has been incredibly reassuring as a parent. I would highly recommend Belinda to anyone looking for reliable, professional and genuinely caring maths support. She has made a real difference to our daughter's learning journey.

Thank you so much for the support you have given to my daughter, you've taught her how to understand her maths lessons much better. She now has better understanding and that has built her resillience and confidence through her journey with Mrs Fowler. As well as having dyscalculia my daughter also has SEN needs which makes it hard for her to process information. Mrs Fowler is such an incredible 1-1 maths teacher and I'm just so proud about how far my daugther has come on in maths with Mrs Fowler. I would definitely recommend having Mrs Fowler as your maths dyscalculia teacher.

Belinda has been an amazing maths tutor for my daughter. She is patient, supportive and explains in a way that really works. My daugther's confidence has grown so much and her progress has been clear to see. I would highly recommend Belinda to any parent looking for extra support.
