Lois Letchford, Literacy Problem Solver

<p>For the past 20 years, Lois Letchford has been a literacy problem solver. Specializing in teaching children who struggle with learning to read, her creative teaching methods vary depending on the reading ability of the student, employing age-appropriate, rather than reading-age-appropriate, material. Lois’s non-traditional background, multi-continental exposure, and passion for helping failing students equip her with a unique skill set and perspective.</p> <p>Through coaching and workshops at international conferences, TV appearances, and highly-rated radio stations, she uses her own story in <strong><em>Reversed: A Memoir,</em></strong> the story of her son's—and her own—learning disability,<em> </em>to teach educators and parents how to create flexible learning environments using comprehensive & innovative teaching methods. </p> <p>On this episode we discuss her transition from SAHM to going back into the workforce after 14 years, the hindrance of labeling children, looking into what is causing a child's behavior and not just writing them off, her mama bear instincts to step in & help her son when no other teachers would, and her son's incredible journey from being called "the worst child" to receiving a scholarship to Oxford. </p> <p>You can find out more about Lois here <a href= "https://www.loisletchford.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://www.loisletchford.com/</a> , on IG @loisletchford and FB: Loisletchfordauthor</p> <p> </p>
