About SpLDs coaching
What SpLDs coaching looks like with My-Prompt Plus
Specific Learning Differences (SpLDs) describe a 'spikey' learning profile where you will excel in some aspects of learning (the highest point of a spike) and experience a reduced performance in others. SpLDs include dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia. ADHD is both a SpLD and a mental health condition.
You only have to do an online search using terms such as ‘famous dyslexics’ to know how many prosperous individuals are neurodiverse. Some of the world’s wealthiest and most successful individuals are dyslexic, dyspraxic, ADHD, etc.
Neurodiversity can bring amazing benefits such as great interpersonal skills, excellent visual problem solving, creativity and tenacity. It can also bring challenges such as difficulties with memory, organisation, communication and time management, but these can be managed with successful strategies.
SpLDs will affect individuals differently as they are spectrum conditions. This is why we’re interested to hear from you about your experiences so we can make sure we provide you with solutions that will meet your needs.
Your My-Prompt Plus Specialist will also be qualified in supporting individuals with SpLDs.
They will have an excellent understanding of SpLDs and will be able to show you strategies to improve your performance and quality of life. Our coaching sessions are broken into 3 parts:
- Explain why you experience difficulties in a specific area, such as organisation
- Listen to your particular experiences.
- Share with you strategies that are proven to be effective.
This is what is known as a ‘psychoeducational’ approach, where you learn about your SpLDs, you understand how it will impact you, and you are introduced to the strategies you need to minimise the challenges and harness your strengths. The metacognitive aspect of our coaching model is where we want to also learn from you. We want to listen to your experiences which will enable us to tailor a support package for you as an individual.
Our SpLD coaching progamme has received excellent feedback and we look forward to listening to your needs and sharing with you strategies that will inspire you to achieve your full potential.

What our users say
“I wasn't sure at first. I'd tried assistive tech before and given up, but the revision methods and memory techniques have genuinely changed how I study.”
“I love the rewards. Ticking tasks off and seeing my timeline of what I've achieved keeps me coming back every day.”
“For the first time I feel like my ADHD is under control. The reminders, cost/value tools and the Pomodoro timer have made a real difference.”
