Finding the Right School for Your Child (Part 3)
This segment from Yale's Overcoming Dyslexia course focuses on practical guidance for parents choosing a school for a child with dyslexia. The instructor, drawing on Yale's dyslexia research program, walks through what to look for in a school's reading instruction, how to evaluate whether a program uses structured, evidence-based approaches, and questions parents should raise with administrators and teachers. It continues a multi-part discussion within lesson 10a, building on earlier material about assessment and advocacy. The tone is direct and practical rather than theoretical, aimed at parents and educators navigating placement decisions for struggling readers. At ten minutes, it is a short, focused installment rather than a full standalone lecture, but it delivers concrete, actionable advice consistent with the course's clinical and research grounding in reading disability.
