Instruction takes place in small groups, based on the need for support experienced by the student and on the assessment of reading and writing skills, if necessary.

Students can join the group at any stage of the academic year. The group is part of the course Fluent Writing Group Tsemppis, so credits are awarded for it.

Dyslexia Assessment

Students can participate in dyslexia assessment twice a year (11 September 2012 and 22 January 2013). The assessment is based on the screening method of dyslexia for young people and adults (Holopainen et al. 2004). The needs for support are identified and the support forms are jointly planned according to the results. The support forms can include alternative forms of course completion, extra time in exams, extra training, provision of course materials in advance, etc.
