TESTIMONY

“Elyse was able to identify and relate to the struggles we were going through as parents of a child with a complex mind. Instead of seeing my child’s actions as an issue, she sees a super power that can be harnessed and used to his advantage. Elyse has found a way to combine her experience, knowledge and compassion to enlighten me and provide tools to support my child in a way that builds confidence for both of us, in place of self ridicule.” - Mom of two boys, Saskatoon

Definition of Twice exceptionality : ' Twice-exceptional learners are students who demonstrate the potential for high achievement or creative productivity in one or more domains such as math, science, technology, the social arts, the visual, spatial, or performing arts or other areas of human productivity AND who manifest one or more disabilities as defined by federal or state eligibility criteria. These disabilities include specific learning disabilities; speech and language disorders; emotional/behavioral disorders; physical disabilities; Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD); or other health impairments, such as Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). These disabilities and high abilities combine to produce a unique population of students who may fail to demonstrate either high academic performance or specific disabilities. Their gifts may mask their disabilities and their disabilities may mask their gifts.' Reis, S. M., Baum, S. M., & Burke, E. (2014).
