Lois Letchford has developed an innovative approach to teaching students with learning difficulties how to read. She gained this passion through supporting her own son, who was deemed to be 'unteachable' by his teachers. With persistence, love, and creativity, Lois found a way not only to teach her son but also to make learning accessible for others who do not follow the traditional learning path.
