Please meet NiCole Talley, dyslexia therapist, teacher, mom and wife. She resides on the Mississippi Coast and loves teaching children. We met in 2014 at a wonderful Mother’s Morning out program. She returned out the public upper elementary setting when her boys were in the daily school grind. But then, they recognized their oldest son was not thriving in school. Join us as we discuss the huge roll dyslexia can play in a child’s life and how we can help them learn to advocate from themselves and thrive in all situations.
