Show Me The Evidence in Education - A Conversation with Heidi Gregory

It was an absolute honour to engage in a conversation with Heidi about her Chapter, Show Me The Evidence in Education. Heidi generously shared her Education journey, which commenced as a parent and morphed into parent advocacy and much more. Heidi generously shared the following points: - Her children's diagnoses and their journey from assessments to understanding what this meant for them. - The grief that results from the diagnoses. - The books that were pivotal in Heidi's journey of understanding dyslexia and the explicit teaching her children would benefit from. - The importance of the allied health professionals (Psychologists and Speech Pathologists) involved in the wrap-around support. - Her role as an activist, the founder of Dyslexia Victoria Support Group (a Facebook group with 10,300 members) and the Vice President of SPELD Victoria.
