Hello all,

Would anyone care to share any useful advice or links for my wee dilemma?

I've recently started teaching English at technical college (polytech) in Holland. I'm not really confronted with dyslexia as I'm expected to focus on oral skills in the first year, and to do whatever I like in English II but...

Being at a technical school, there are a lot of dyslexics. I would like to learn a lot more about this disability, and am able to find stacks of useful info online and in libraries. I feel I would benefit from info specifically about dyslexics in technical further education - almost everything I find seems to focus on primary and high school education.

Can anyone direct me to useful sources? I'd really appreciate it as I'm a one-man English dept and don't have an expert to turn to.

There didn't appear to be anything useful in the archives here so, yes, I checked.
Cheers all.
