Sharon Roberts
Licensed Davis Facilitator
Registered Nutritional Health Consultant
Board Member, Whole Dyslexic Society
After embarking upon various schools, tutoring methods and nutritional aids, Sharon remained puzzled as to why her child couldn’t do things other kids his age accomplished easily.
There was endless homework, frustration and anxiety surrounding school. She was about to give up when she came across the book “The Gift of Dyslexia” by Ron Davis.
The book made sense to me and offered a simple solution to correct the problem.
She found a nearby Davis facilitator, enrolled her son in a one-week program and has never looked back. As soon as he returned to school, his homework time lessened, and he had more confidence and “we knew things were going to be ok as he became more and more independent from traditional help.”
During her training to become a facilitator in the Davis methods, she learned she too had similar symptoms to her son.
I used to avoid doing multiple-choice tests, found myself to be a bit klutzy and often found it difficult to verbalize my thoughts.
Using the Davis Methods has helped her overcome these hurdles, which were recently proven when she received certification in nutrition and holistic health – examinations largely composed of multiple-choice questionnaires.
Licensed since 2003, Sharon has witnessed the positive effects the Davis® Mastery for Dyslexia Method has had on hundreds of lives in Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph and surrounding areas.
It is Sharon’s goal that each client discover and embrace their “Gift of Dyslexia.” Being dyslexic or having ADHD does not mean a lifetime of medications and remedial help. By tapping into a dyslexic’s visual-spatial and/or kinesthetic strengths, one can overcome the drudgery of reading, writing and math.
Every dyslexic person is unique and the Davis® Mastery for Dyslexia Program can be fitted into any goal. It’s a time of self-discovery within a safe setting.
Sharon has a degree in History and a diploma in Journalism and Nutrition. Presently, she is undergoing training in the Davis Autism Approach. In the meantime, she is open to educating others on dyslexia through free telephone consultations and presentations.
Sharon is also a member and contributor of the parent coach community at parentguide.ca.
