Supporting Students with Dyslexia :: Kerri Irvin [Ep 317]

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When it comes to learning differences and special education diagnoses, it can feel overwhelming and defeating to see your child struggle. My guest Kerri Irvin is a dyslexia specialist who has worked with countless children, teens and adults to help them thrive and embrace their learning differences. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It amazes me the gifts that God provides for all children, alongside their challenges. For every challenge, an equally important, if not more significant, gift has been provided and their challenges, without fail, are gifts that support them with their talents and make them better learners and people.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We talk about what dyslexia is, how students with dyslexia learn differently, ways to partner with your child’s teachers to help them succeed, and how to support friends who have children with learning differences. Kerri shares with passion and hope about how dyslexia is not just a learning challenge, but can be a strength. </span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Connect with Kerri</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Email:</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">kdicalt123@gmail.com</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Site:</span> <a href= "https://sites.google.com/view/skdesignsforlearning/home"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> SK Designs for Learning</span></a></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Links Mentioned:  </span></h2> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href= "https://dyslexia.yale.edu/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href= "https://dyslexiaida.org/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">International Dyslexia Association</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href= "https://www.neuhaus.org/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Neuhaus Education Center</span></a></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><a href= "https://
