Dyslexia: Surviving and Succeeding at College is a practical and
easy-to-read guide for dyslexic and dyspraxic students. Clearly and
simply written, in a dyslexia-friendly format, it addresses not
just study skills, but also more general aspects of coping with
student life.
Each chapter includes step-by-step strategies which can be put into
practice from the very first day at college. You will learn how to
develop effective study skills such as:
- reading strategies to improve your accuracy and comprehension
skills
- how to make your note-taking efficient and useful for essay
writing
- feeling confident in contributing to seminars
- memory strategies for study and everyday life
- how to organise your time and plan your work.
Sylvia Moody recognises that adapting to student life generally
is as important as developing study skills. Guidance is given to
assist you in finding your way around campus, building
relationships with tutors, managing emotional development and
preparing for the world of work. Full of invaluable self-help
strategies, this book will empower you to improve your skills in
all areas.
The book will also be useful to subject tutors who wish to learn
about dyslexia, and to dyslexia tutors and co-ordinators who want
to give practical advice to their students.
Dr Sylvia Moody is a freelance writer and psychologist
specialising in adult dyslexia.
