The Dyslexia show 2024

Friday 15th March

I am doing a workshop at The Dyslexia Show to show ways to encourage your child if they have dyslexia. The link below will take you to the information I will be sharing.

Encouraging your child to achieve using assistive technology

Saturday 16th March

On Saturday I am speaking to educationalists on the subject of our film series which is free to download and use to promote the use of AT in the UK and beyond. Go to the website link and fill out a short form and within 24 hrs you will have the films. They are wonderful even though I say it myself!

Nasen AT Miniguide

As a follow on if you are a teacher or SENCO you might want to download the nasen miniguide that Julia Clouter and myself wrote this year. Great advice to share with your school or setting. A guide on how to do it.

Testimonies

“Accessibility Smyles continues to serve up timely information about the latest and best technology for individuals with unique needs. Always pleased to receive these helpful resources with related links. I share them with parents, educators and others who serve the many with reading and learning challenges. (Thank you, Myles!)” – Jean

“I’ve known Myles for many years, he’s my go-to expert for all this Accessibility, so much so that he’s our resident expert at Anderton Tiger Radio. Whenever we feature this topic he’s always there with excellent advice and guidance, in fact you can listen to him again here from our January radio show https://www.buzzsprout.com/695014/2586430-myles-pilling-talks-about-technologies-for-send-that-have-caught-his-eye-at-bett-2020 Highly recommended, Myles is most definitely one of the top 5 experts in his field in the UK” – Russell Prue, Anderson Tiger

“After one of your recent training sessions, I visited your Techsavvy session and discovered the virtual tour guides. A a result my husband and I enjoyed a splendid trip to Edinburgh. A city I have avoided for a number of years due to its challenges for a wheelchair user due to its very steep streets and cobbles. I think the sessions you have posted are really good and I hoped you would be happy if I suggested these to clients, I am assisting in my volunteering journey. I am also liaising with a local charity who are trying to encourage their older members and I think they too could benefit from your regular hints and tips so would like to suggest they pass on the Techsavvy links. You really are an inspiration.” –
