Join our free event ‘Supporting working memory’ with Louise Selby on 11 June, 7 - 8.30pm on Zoom.

Working memory is a key skill for learning and living, but learners with dyslexia often struggle with it. In this online session with our South East branch, Louise will give an accessible overview of working memory and how it impacts children and young people. We’ll consider some strategies to support working memory and wider memory and learning. Metacognition - the understanding of how we learn - will be a key theme. Attendees will come away with deeper understanding and strategies to try straight away.

This free event will be useful for parents/carers and teachers/educators.

The event will not be recorded.
