Agents of HopeDyslexia, hope and supporting learners with reading difficulties with Professor Joe Elliott, hosted by Dr Nazam HussainI had a conversation with Professor Joe Elliott, Durham University, and Principal of Collingwood College, because of my interest in supporting children and young people with reading and spelling difficulties. In this talk, Joe and I discuss; the challenges of identifying dyslexia using pre-definedcriteria, highlight factors that maintain the need for a diagnosis of dyslexia, and explore the role of intelligence tests. We finish the conversation with the role of the educational psychologist and how to instill hope to support all learners with reading and spelling difficulties.I hope you enjoy the talk!2021-09-271h 00
