About Me
Nicola McCormack
BA, PG Dip, PGCE, OCR SpLD Dip, APC
​
Hello, I'm Nicola McCormack and I trained as a Level 7 specialist dyslexia teacher and assessor at the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre. I have a current Assessment Practising Certificate (APC) from Patoss (the Professional Association for Teachers of SpLD).
​
I trained as a dyslexia teacher following my eldest son's diagnosis with dyslexia and therefore have personal experience of the challenges but also the strengths of having dyslexia. I worked for 10 years in an independent prep school in Surrey, teaching 1:1 literacy and numeracy support and carrying out dyslexia assessments. I now work privately carrying out dyslexia assessments and exam access arrangement assessments.
​
I cover Cranleigh, Guildford and the surrounding areas. Please get in touch if you would like to chat about an assessment for your child and any questions or concerns you may have.
Other relevant information:
-
I hold an up-to-date enhanced DBS
-
I hold Professional Indemnity Insurance
-
I am registered with the Information Commissioner's Office
-
I regularly attend CPD training events to ensure that my practice and knowledge is up-to-date.
