Course overview

In adulthood, DYS disorders (dyslexia, dysorthographia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia, dysphasia) do not disappear — they transform. They can affect work (writing, meetings, organization), daily life (paperwork, planning) and self-esteem. This training course provides simple guidelines for understanding these specificities, spotting concrete signs and implementing effective adaptations at home and at work — without overburdening the person or those around him/her.

Who is it for?

Families and loved ones, spouses, caregivers — and DYS adults who want to learn more about themselves and acquire the tools they need. No prerequisites; caring, solution-focused approach.
