Supporting Learners with Dyslexia, Dyspraxia & Dyscalculia 

A two Hour Live Zoom Workshop  

You already know this learner… 

  • The one who can drive but keeps forgetting routines 
  • The one who mixes up left and right every lesson 
  • The one who needs things explained again… and again… and again 

What if the problem isn’t your teaching — but how the learner’s brain processes information? 

Why This Workshop Matters (More Than You Think) 

Around 1 in 5 people are neurodivergent.
That means a significant number of your learners may have dyslexia, dyspraxia or dyscalculia — whether they’ve told you or not. 

Many learners: 

  • Feel embarrassed to disclose it 
  • Don’t realise they’re dyslexic or dyspraxic 
  • Don’t think it’s relevant to driving 
  • Have never been taught in a way that actually works for them 

The result? 

  • Slow progress 
  • Frustrated pupils 
  • Endless repetition 
  • Draining lessons 

This workshop shows you how to break that cycle. 

What You’ll Learn in This 1.5-Hour Zoom Workshop 

🔍 Spot the Indicators Early 

Learn the key signs of dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia in driving lessons — even when learners don’t disclose it. 

🧠 Understand What Your Learners Are Really Struggling With 

Discover the specific challenges neurodivergent pupils face with: 

  • Sequencing 
  • Coordination 
  • Memory 
  • Directional awareness 
  • Processing speed 

So you can adapt your teaching without lowering standards. 

🔁 Stop Repeating the MSPSL (or Any Routine) Over and Over 

Learn smarter ways to embed routines so they stick — reducing lesson time spent repeating the same processes. 

⬅️➡️ Finally Fix Left & Right Confusion 

Practical techniques that help learners confidently differentiate left from right — permanently. 

✋👀🎧 Use Multi-Sensory & Accelerated Learning Techniques 

Discover how to tailor lessons using visual, verbal, kinaesthetic and auditory methods that match how each pupil learns. 

🚗 Help Pupils Master Manoeuvres Between Lessons 

Reduce the “we did this last week” problem by giving learners tools to practise and retain skills independently. 

The Results You’ll Notice Fast 

 Faster learner progress
 Fewer repeated explanations
 Calmer, more enjoyable lessons
 More confident pupils
 Higher pass rates
 Increased referrals from satisfied learners
 Renewed enjoyment of teaching 

And most importantly — less mental exhaustion for you. 

 

Who This Workshop Is For 

✔️ Driving instructors who want to teach more effectively
✔️ ADIs & PDIs feeling stuck repeating the same content
✔️ Instructors working with anxious or struggling learners
✔️ Anyone who wants better results without longer lessons 

No prior knowledge of neurodiversity required.
