[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thank you for sharing. She is not my only kid, so I want to prepare myself mentally & financially what I could expect. It seems there will be a lot more struggles than I thought to be. My another child also costs me a lot of money for therapies every year but at least I don't have to worry the academic part. Can I train myself in OG tutoring for my own child? I work full yime, but if there are any virtual or weekend/weeknight classes in montgomery county. I am interested in signing up.[/quote]

I think the Barton method can be used by non-teachers. From what I understand, it's very scripted so may be a little boring, but can be used by parents. My kids with dyslexia and ADHD are in college and both are doing well. I think a key was early and intense OG tutoring during ES. They still struggle with processing speed, working memory and one still struggles sounding out some words, but they both chose majors that are aligned with their strengths. My husband also has dyslexia and he was a math major so he could avoid reading as much as possible. He's very successful in his career.

I think it might help your daughter if she sees there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Once she goes to college she can choose what to study and find something she enjoys.[/quote]
