"The assessor was fantastic, she was patient, compassionate and reassuring throughout. She brought a sense a humour that helped to relax the process, but didn’t take away from her professionalism. She is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and very perceptive, picking up on the slightest of clues to give a very thorough and complete diagnosis.."

"The assessor was great at putting my child at ease and she left having a really positive experience."

"Assessor was very professional, understanding and patient with me. All assessments where clearly explained and if I had any confusions or doubts the assessor helped me to understand clearly. I was offered breaks regularly."

"It was a pleasant and efficient process from start to finish. Really happy I chose to have an assessment with BDA - thank you!!"

"A very thorough assessment which clearly picked up on difficulties noticed by us and some teachers, helping reassure our child that she does have ability just not always demonstrated fully when under time pressure. The assesor was delightful, calm, considered and warm and friendly, putting our child at ease instantly."

"Assessor was brilliant with my daughter, made her feel really comfortable and was actually a very enjoyable experience for her."

"Excellent service! Lovely assessor, put my 8 year old at ease and she really enjoyed it! Quick service and report issued promptly. Thanks for your support."

"I thought the process was going to be slow and difficult to organise but it was quite the opposite. The response from the BDA was almost immediate as was the response from the assessor. Thank you!"

"I contacted the BDA as I didn't know where else to turn. I had never considered that my son was dyslexic, but enough flags were flying to let us know that he had difficulties particularly with his writing. His spelling was excellent ( a misconception that stopped both myself and teachers from seeing his difficulties). 

The BDA were really efficient and helpful, by responding and explaining how we could get our son assessed and by sending a list of assessors who worked with 12 year old children and who were relatively nearby. After identifying an assessor, they put us in touch and we made an appointment. 

Our assessor was brilliant, responding with information about the test and to more specific worries we had, before we attended. The assessor gave us really thorough feedback both on the day of the test and in writing a few days later, which we could then take to his school. 

My son is dyslexic and it was like a lightbulb had been switched on, and so many things became clear for both our son and us. We thought the service from start to finish from both the BDA and the assessor was excellent, professional and massively reassuring and I would recommend the BDA as a first port of call for anybody who needs information about, or assessment for Dyslexia."
