What is my professional approach?

​

​

Conductive Education emphasizes a holistic approach to develop an individual's personality and skills in all areas, such as motor, cognitive, social, communication, and self-help, through fun and age-appropriate activities. With this approach, we aim to foster an active desire to learn and accomplish rewarding challenges rather than perform "must-do" therapy tasks. We focus on improving individuals' abilities to their highest potential by teaching them practical skills that they can implement in their everyday lives.

​

As Lao Tzu’s famous quote says:

​

“If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.

If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.”

​

I will happily support your child's learning process by:

​​

• Conducting comprehensive and targeted assessments and evaluations specific to them

• Setting up educational and therapy plans with short-, medium- and long-term targets according to the assessment results

• Helping to develop their motor, cognitive, communication, social, and sensory processing skills through age-appropriate and fun activities

• Helping to improve their self-help skills, such as eating, dressing and maintaining personal hygiene

• Utilising specialist strategies and tools to ensure that they fully access learning and the national curriculum

• Ensuring and supporting the development of their emotional wellbeing

• Writing assessment and educational therapy reports

• Using Augmentative and Alternative Communication methods if needed

• Collaborating with other professionals working with them and attending team meetings (e.g. EHCP, TAC)

• Providing additional training to family members, carers and babysitters if required

• Advising on special needs aids and equipment specific to them

• Performing personal assistant and carer roles upon request (e.g. PEG feeding, manual handling, hoisting)
