Weronika Żelaźnicka
I am an educator and an educational assessor.
About me
I am a specialist in special educational needs and educational therapy, with experience of working with children and young people. For me, educational therapy is not just about addressing difficulties at school, but above all about supporting the child in discovering their potential and building their self-confidence. I place great importance on an individualised approach and on creating a safe, accepting atmosphere in which the child can develop freely. I firmly believe that an accurate diagnosis and early support have a crucial impact on a child’s future educational journey, which is what motivates me in my work.
Education and experience
I graduated in educational assessment and therapy from Korczak University. I am also a special needs teacher, a Hand Therapist and a Social Skills Trainer (TUS). I gained my professional experience, amongst other places, at Psychological and Educational Counselling Centres. In my day-to-day work, I specialise in diagnosing learning difficulties (including dyslexia, dysgraphia, dysorthography and dyscalculia) and assessing school readiness. I am constantly improving my qualifications by taking part in numerous courses, training programmes and conferences.
Training completed: Diagnosis of developmental dyslexia using the SB6/18 battery; diagnosis of dyscalculia using the 10/12 and 13/16 batteries; and the 5/6 battery for assessing school readiness.
