I am a T.A with an interest in learning support. I am really enjoying reading both the course book and the text book. There are a few points which I realise are an absolute must. These are:
- Be positive, always- (focus on strengths whilst working on weaknesses)
- Reward the child
- Have patience
- Use multi-sensory approaches and any other useful aids
- Don't label a child
- Allow extra time to complete tasks

I hope this helps!
