I am the Chairman of Rotary Community Corps of Bukit Padang, Kota Kinabalu Sabah.
My RCC is now preparing a book for shut down kids. Many kids are wrongly classified as dyslexic when in fact they are instructional casualties.
This is to inform you that our book on how to teach such kids will be out by end of February. It will be free of charge with no agenda.
Please share this information and watch out for the book online.
Feel free to see the testimonials of some of the parents of my former students.There will be more to come.

Wish you well.
