Susan Barton, Founder of Bright Solutions for Dyslexia, LLC
Susan Barton is an
internationally recognized expert in the field of Dyslexia and Attention Deficit
Disorder.
After receiving a degree in psychology
and criminal justice, Susan spent the first 20 years of her adult life founding,
growing, and selling three high-tech businesses in California. But watching her
dyslexic nephew's continuous struggle in school compelled Susan to change her
focus to the field of dyslexia. She has since won many awards for her work in
this field.
Susan spent years tutoring adults and
children with dyslexia. She is trained in 7 different Orton-Gillingham-based
reading systems. Yet when she began to train brand-new tutors, she recognized
the need for an easier-to-learn and easier-to-use system. To satisfy that need,
she developed the Barton Reading and Spelling System, now in pilot
testing at elementary schools and adult literacy programs in California.
As founder of Bright Solutions for
Dyslexia, Susan devotes her time to educating parents, teachers, and tutors
about the causes, the symptoms, and the appropriate remediation techniques for
students with dyslexia and/or ADD. In addition to offering seminars to the
public, she conducts in-service trainings throughout the Western United States.
Susan is also an instructor in Phonemic
Awareness and Multisensory Teaching Methods at the University of California, and
in Learning Disabilities at West Valley College. She has recently been the
keynote speaker at conferences for the Canadian Dyslexia Association, California
Literacy, and the California Learning Disabilities Association.
Susan is a member of the International
Dyslexia Association, Ch.A.D.D., the Learning Disabilities Association, Parents
Helping Parents, and the Association for Educational Therapists.
