This manual is the result of many years' experience gained while working in the field of Education. My work covered teaching at the Primary as well as the Secondary Levels. Many years were spent in the field of Special Education both as a Special Education Officer-In-Charge, within a large Secondary College, as well as a District Consultant. This manual is written with the hope that these shared experiences will benefit both Teachers and Parents. This work covers most aspects of the area of Literacy. As part of my work involved diagnosing Learning Difficulties many students referred to me were actually underachieving Gifted and Talented. This led me into the World of the Under Achieving Gifted. This manual would also be relevant where English is taught as a Second Language.
