Susan Barton is one of a handful of names which are automatically associated with Dyslexia education and advocacy. Susan’s dedication to, “fighting the craziness,” and educating teachers and parents about Dyslexia has landed Susan in the International Dyslexia Association’s Hall of Honor, where a plaque with her name now hangs next to those for Dr. Orton, Anna Gillingham, Reid Lyon, Beth Slingerland and other internationally recognized authorities in the field of dyslexia. Cool, huh?

“The giftedness in Dyslexia is so often overlooked it drives me crazy!…Another way to find dyslexics, is to stop looking at individuals who are terrible with spelling, and to start looking for individuals who excel in particular areas”- Susan Barton
