About The Extra Dimension
Judith
With over 15 years of experience, I deeply understand the daily challenges faced by students and their parents. I love creating a positive learning environment by focusing on students’ unique strengths to help them overcome their challenges.
I offer more than just teaching literacy skills. By using the Alpha to Omega program, I gently guide students through spelling and reading, improving their literacy, creativity, vocabulary, communication, confidence, and ICT skills in a fun and structured way.
Growing up as an undiagnosed neurodiverse child was tough for me. I struggled socially, emotionally, and physically and felt misunderstood. It affected my academic performance too. As an adult, I was diagnosed with several conditions and decided to use my experiences to help others. I became a Specialist Dyslexia Tutor and I educate parents about neurodiversity. I believe my students have hidden potential and break down barriers to help them achieve it. In my free time, I enjoy socialising, studying positive psychology, and pursuing personal and spiritual development.
I have been actively involved with the Thames Valley Dyslexia Centre since 2007, as a service user, tutor, and supporter of their wonderful work.
