Our Facilitator

Chris Cole, Learning Differences Advisor and Specialist
Our workshop facilitator is Chris Cole, Learning Differences Advisor and specialist.
About Chris
Chris has been presenting workshops to parents, educators, children and tutoring organisations since 2016. Her presentation style means the information is presented in an articulate, easy to understand, interactive method that builds on the attendee’s knowledge.

Chris’s extensive knowledge and expertise comes in part from living as a person with compensated dyslexia, her sons who have dyslexia and through her role as a founding member of the local support group for parents of children with learning difficulties. She is an accountant by trade and has retrained though SPELD NZ and Literacy Aotearoa as well as attending workshops run by an international dyslexic expert.
"The feedback I had about your sessions was fabulous and really gave our teachers very practical advice and strategies for making the lives of our dyslexic and dyscalculia students more enjoyable and to support their learning. Your presentation style was relaxed yet ideally paced and details driven along with your wonderful experience and ideas."

Kim Scott, Principal
Professional Development for Lower Mataura Valley COL Training Day, January 2019
