Learn How to Teach Your Child Who Learns Differently
Parent training that helps you understand your child, stop guessing, and teach in ways that actually work.
You’re Working Hard…But Something Still Isn’t Working
You’ve chosen to homeschool because you care deeply about your child.
- You’ve tried different curriculum.
- You’ve adjusted your schedule.
- You’ve put in the time.
And still…
- Progress feels inconsistent
- Lessons can end in frustration
- Your child is clearly smart—but learning is still hard
At some point, most parents start to wonder:
Am I doing something wrong?
You’re Not Failing.
You’ve Just Never Been Taught How Your Child Learns.
A Mentality Shift
When I started homeschooling over 30 years ago, I thought the key was finding the right curriculum.
It wasn’t.
The real shift came when I began to understand:
- how my children processed information
- where their learning was breaking down
- what needed to be strengthened
- and what needed to be supported
Everything changed.
Why Parent Education Matters
(Especially for Dyslexia)
Most of us were taught through a traditional model of education.
But that model doesn’t work well for kids who learn differently.
Even many trained teachers:
- aren’t taught how dyslexia actually affects learning
- don’t understand processing weaknesses
- rely on methods that don’t address the root problem
Which is why so many bright kids continue to struggle.
And why so many parents feel stuck.
Homeschooling Works Best When Parents Become Equipped Teachers
A skilled tutor doesn’t just follow a program. They:
- teach explicitly
- watch for understanding
- adjust in real time
- use methods that match the student
That’s what makes the difference.
And that’s exactly what these courses are designed to help you become.
Successful dyslexics say that the #1 factor in their success was the presence of one caring adult who believed in them and helped them to learn.
About Your Guide
Hi, I’m Marianne Sunderland.
I’m a homeschool mom of eight—seven of whom have dyslexia—as well as a certified Orton-Gillingham tutor, author, speaker, and the founder of Homeschooling With Dyslexia.
For over 30 years, I’ve been teaching my own children at home while studying dyslexia, learning differences, and how to teach in ways that actually work for kids who struggle in traditional settings.
Like many parents, I started out overwhelmed.
I didn’t understand why my children were struggling.
I didn’t know how to teach them effectively.
And the traditional methods I tried weren’t working.
What changed everything was learning how my children actually learned—and how to teach them in ways that worked.
Today, I help families around the world do the same.
These courses were created to give you what I wish I had when I started.

Testimonials
I can’t thank Marianne enough for her online parent classes. I have learned more about dyslexia through Marianne and her classes than all other resources combined. Just finished up another course last night, in the comfort of my home and pjs.
Although I have read a lot about dyslexia, I am finding these classes to be very valuable. The depth that you go into, as well as the practical solutions you discuss are exactly what I needed to feel more confident in teaching my son. I particularly appreciate how much you incorporate real life examples into the learning. It’s what I have been missing in other sources. Thank you so much for taking this on! It must be a ton of work, but it is greatly appreciated.
According to the International Dyslexia Association, “dyslexic students need direct, systematic and individual instruction in reading and spelling and traditional schools do not always provide adequate levels of service.”
