NOTCH HILL LEARNING

I’m working on making this world a place where all kids can achieve their dreams and share their incredible gifts with us all. I work mostly with people who identify as neurodiverse. I support elementary aged children who struggle with math and literacy, and I support teens and young adults who are holding all the pieces they need for academic success but are having a hard time putting them together. Unlocking the hidden talents of the young people I work with is my absolute passion. Along with my academic background, comes the experiences of being a dyslexic kid and parenting a differently wired kid through public, private, and home-schooling environments.

2023 CONFERENCE SESSION

SESSION: How to Fire Your Parents (and rehire them as allies.)

  • Do you feel ready to take on more responsibility as a learner?
  • Do you ever feel like you and your parents get stuck in a homeschooling routine that's hard for you to continue to grow in?
  • Do you ever struggle to find the motivation to do your work, or struggle with procrastination?

Join Nicola for an interactive workshop for teens designed to help you super power your way through high school and change the way you work with your parents. We will look at the 3 key elements to build smart study practices which will allow you to become a focused, independent learner…who, like a high performance athlete, has a support team that can be relied on when needed. Join us for this dynamic webinar which may pose you to ask questions about yourself that you've never considered before.

SESSION: SQUARE PEGS - UNDERSTANDING TWICE EXCEPTIONAL LEARNERS

Children who are both very bright and have a learning difference can have unique needs. Their ability to compensate can make it hard to figure out where exactly they need support and enrichment. In this workshop, we delve deeper into what 2E is, how to spot it using assessment results or anecdotal measures you can use at home, and look at home schooling strategies that support both ends of their learning spectrum.

In this meaning - based approach to spelling we look at modern, evidence - based approaches to spelling instruction that are more fun than traditional memorization and are more successful for different brain types. Come away with new strategies that you can use right away with your children, and make spelling a fascinating, child directed subject that can be woven in throughout your homeschooling.
