Diana Hudson has taught science in secondary schools for more than 35 years. She
is a qualified teacher of learners with specific learning difficulties and this
combination has enabled her to become both a Head of Biology and a Special
Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO), during her career. Diana now focuses on
giving talks and insets for education students, teachers, and parents to help
them understand how ‘outside the box’ thinkers can best be supported to learn
effectively, gain in confidence and succeed both at school and as adults. She
writes for professional journals and is the author of Specific Learning
Difficulties what teachers need to Know and Exploring Science with Dyslexic
Children and Teens.
Diana has a PhD in Zoology but was diagnosed as having dyslexia a few years ago.
