Dear Parent:
I’m a parent who has overcome learning disabilities. I know what it’s like to struggle in school without the appropriate learning support. I was retained in second grade due to a reading disability. My teachers knew only that I was unable to learn at the same rate as my peers, but did not know that with help targeted to meet my unique needs I could excel in school. It seems hard to believe now, given my Masters and Law degrees, but at some point in elementary school, the school psychologist told my parents that I was not capable of going to college. Having my own children now, I can imagine my parents’ heartbreak.
My learning disabilities were not understood most of my life, but I’m lucky that accommodations and lots of hard work made me who I am today. I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished. See my resume.
I’ve dedicated my career to helping children like your own in school so that hopefully they won’t have to struggle as I did.
Give me the opportunity to speak with you and explain how we can make school work for your child. I handle each case personally. CA parents can schedule a free consultation here.
Sincerely,
AllisonHertog
