Welcome to Sensory Learning Services!
As a parent, watching your child struggle with reading, writing, or spelling can be incredibly tough. When traditional classroom approaches aren’t working, it doesn’t mean your child can’t learn—it simply means they need a different pathway to achieve success.
At Sensory Learning Services, we specialise in helping children unlock their literacy potential.
Led by Marisa Schreier, a specialist literacy tutor with over 15 years of experience and an extensive background in linguistics, our highly experienced teaching team provides targeted, evidence-based instruction tailored to each student’s unique learning profile.
Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, we use structured, multi-sensory programs grounded in the Science of Reading, including Sounds-Write, Hickey, and ASCEND.
These methodologies explicitly teach the foundations of literacy, building the skills and confidence students require to become successful readers and writers.
Our approach is effective for students with Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, ADHD and those experiencing persistent literacy difficulties. By identifying and addressing the underlying barriers to learning, we help children make meaningful progress, develop confidence, and rediscover their true learning potential.
Explore our core service areas below to find the right path forward for your family:
Literacy Tutoring
Sensory Learning Services provides expert, one-on-one intervention literacy tutoring designed to build confidence alongside core reading and spelling skills.
Our team of literacy teachers specialises in supporting students with learning differences, including Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, and ADHD.
We believe early intervention is key to closing literacy gaps before children fall behind, giving them the tools they need to thrive.

Courses for Primary School Children
Writing requires a massive amount of brainpower—coordinating handwriting, spelling, grammar, and ideas all at once can easily overwhelm a student.
Our specialised writing courses break the writing process down into manageable, explicit steps. By focusing on explicit sentence construction and structured progression, we help children move from hesitant, reluctant writers into confident, expressive communicators who understand how to build impactful text from the ground up.
Help your child at home with Online Sessions
We believe that the most successful learning happens when tutoring and home life team up. You don’t need to be a trained educator to make a massive difference in your child’s literacy journey. This dedicated resource page provides parents with practical, stress-free strategies, low-pressure games, and structured activities you can easily build into your daily home routine to reinforce what they are learning in their sessions.
Courses for Adults
It is a common misconception that reading and writing challenges disappear once we leave school, but the reality is that many adults navigate daily life with hidden literacy gaps that hold them back.
Stepping into an adult literacy and writing class isn’t just about practising spelling or grammar—it is a powerful step toward reclaiming your independence, expanding your career opportunities, and building unwavering self-confidence.
Our Goal: To build independent, confident learners who no longer feel defined by their literacy struggles.
