Testimonials
I was amazed to learn that Barry had a plan way beyond spreadsheets and curriculum sets. His holistic approach and philosophy ensured that we were going to learn in a way that was going to bolster my daughters primary school drill.
1) Dedicated times throughout the term 2) Barry’s approach to teaching maths 3) Flexibility
High school Principles. I think you’re your model of learning could encourage teachers to consider alternate approaches. I would recommend to school council’s Bridges method for Professional Development opportunities.
My son is currently working on his maths with Bridges, as he is also dyscalculic. The methods that Barry uses are really helping and he often gets good marks on his maths quizzes. I truly believe that the instruction that my son has received at Bridges has saved his future. I can’t even imagine what his life would be like now in high school if hadn’t been able to learn to read at the age of 6. We are incredibly grateful to Kylie and Barry at Bridges Multisensory Learning for helping reach his potential.
