Working Memory and Dyslexia

Hosted by Paloma Forde, Special Needs Educator, Founder of Dyslexia Support Services Working memory is the capacity to store information in an individual’s temporary memory in order to perform a task involving multiple sequences and steps of operation. Many people with dyslexia also have working memory difficulties. This session is for you if you're a parent wondering why your bright child is struggling to keep up, or if you've heard about working memory but don't fully understand it and want real solutions, not just theory. You'll learn what working memory is, why it matters, and how to spot the early signs. Paloma will share practical, proven strategies to reduce overwhelm and provide effective support, with time included for live Q&A.
