- Provide equitable access to evidence-based service, support, advice and advocacy
- To give a chance to students to prove themselves
- Use and adapt to advances in technology
- Develop strong strategic partnerships with schools and education providers
- To help the parents cope with the difficulty in the most suitable and appropriate way
Our Story
For Parents by Parents
This center was started by a parent for parents. As a mother of 3 children, one of whom is dyslexic, Rehab Shahbal created the DYStinct Learners as a result of the struggle faced by her to find the right support throughout her son’s journey. This included challenges faced in getting the right diagnosis, remediation, and intervention which proved to be time-consuming and limited.
Having gone through this struggle and continuing on this journey, she decided to:
- To help kids overcome their learning difficulties with proper intervention and encouragement to pursue their areas of strength.
- To create a platform to increase awareness and support to parents and educators.
Meet our Team
We always joke that our ideal tutor is just a really smart clown. Our tutors speak "kid" fluently, know how to make the hard stuff fun, and are trained in research verified methods that work for students who have struggled in other settings.
