🎙️ In this episode, I share the mic with Lois Letchford. Lois specializes in teaching children who have struggled to learn to read. When Lois Letchford learned her son has been diagnosed with a low IQ at the end of grade one, she refused to give up on his future. Testing showed Nicholas labeled as “learning disabled.” The world of education was quick to cast him aside, so Lois began working with him one-on-one. What happened next is a journey that spans three continents, unique teaching experiments, never-ending battles with the school system, a mother’s discovery of her own learning blocks, and a bond fueled by the desire to rid Nicholas of the “disabled” label. Lois' book, Reversed is a memoir of profound determination that follows the highs and lows of overcoming impossible odds, turning one woman into a passionate teacher for children who have been left behind.
