Perspectives on Teaching Phonics from a Neurodivergent Person

There is a wide range of cognitive features that are termed neurodivergent and differ from neurotypical behaviour. They appear as unique thought processes, variations in how the senses are processed, and subtle emotional differences. Our neurodivergent characteristics are sources of enormous potential, and yet as ND teachers we rarely have the opportunity to participate in conversations relating to policy.
