“I have a lively and intelligent daughter who has special needs, and over the past three years, she has had the wonderful opportunity of receiving life skills tuition from a highly experienced and professional teacher named Janelle Ryan. I am very pleased with Janelle’s educational services and highly recommend her tuition to other parents for their children.
I have been very happy with Janelle’s style of teaching because she is warm and approachable, caring and very engaging. Janelle always makes sure to plan her lessons carefully, so they relate directly to my daughters’ interests and specific learning goals. The areas I have noticed a vast improvement in are her self-confidence, ability to stay focussed and participation in relevant and topical discussions.
Janelle’s support has helped my daughter to gain excellent communication and written skills which will allow her to engage within her community and achieve her future aspirations.”

“After receiving a diagnosis of dyslexia through a comprehensive psychometric screening assessment, my son attended weekly MSL tutoring. Although this was helpful, the gap between him and his peers continued to widen and his confidence and interest in school began to decline. Desperate to find more support for my son I called SPELD NSW, who referred me to Janelle Ryan. From the first moment I spoke to her, I knew she understood specific learning needs. My son has now seen Janelle twice a week for almost two years. He loves her lessons and looks forward to seeing her. There are minimal complaints about the homework too, as she chooses things that will interest him and develop his confidence. She celebrates his successes as much as we do and has a genuine interest in his learning and progress. He recently finished reading his first novel and on the conclusion of the final paragraph, I asked him what had helped him most on his journey to becoming a reader. He replied, “Janelle”.
I don’t know where we would be without Janelle. As well as continuing to develop my son’s reading and writing skills, she provides on-going guidance, information and support for us as a family. She is a highly qualified professional that uses evidence-based strategies to nurture and engage her students. We are so grateful for all that she does!”
