Summary: Simply amazing!
Comment: This little book explains in a very simple, easy way, how to learn to spell by visualising words. The exercises are well thought out, and lead naturally from one to another. It is fun to work through and a fantastic resource. I have helped several children to go from dreading spelling, and believing that they can't spell, to loving it and spelling words backwards in no time at all! It is incredible!

Summary: British Dyslexia Association Magazine - Summer 2007
Comment: The book is reviewed in this month's BDA magazine by leading learning difficulties expert Bernadette McLean from the Helen Arkell Centre.
"Seeing Spells Achieving has been written for those who struggle with words, and those who support them, such as parents or teachers. The writers claim that 100% of dyslexics do not use visualisation to see words. The book teaches visualisation which is a skill that is useful not only for spelling, but also for comprehension. Hickmott and Bendefy are both qualified in Neurolinguistic Programming. Dyslexia specialists have usually heard of the NLP spelling method which is based on how good spellers spell. This method is clearly explained and is a more efficient way of learning spelling than a laborious working through "the minefield of rules and counter rules" of the English language. Exercises to develop visual memory start with objects and then move on to individual words and text. These exercises are well structured and emphasise the same need for practice that any new skill requires before it becomes second nature. The book does more than work on visualisation skills. It uses techniques from NLP to help learners replace self-limiting beliefs with more positive thoughts. Exercises help learners to implement change and to become "unstuck" from feelings of failure and worthlessness about their previous learning. "Seeing Spells Achieving" is suitable for those who support dyslexics because its explanations are much more accessible than its title would indicate. It is particularly appropriate for use with those dyslexics who believe that they will never be able to spell".

Summary: It even works in French
Comment: After having unsuccessfully tried many approaches to spelling with an 11 year old girl, I read "Seeing Spelling Achieving" and decided to try this simple approach.
I helped the child begin to visualise pictures and words and she gained some confidence very quickly with this. However three weeks into secondary school she was given 13 French words to learn. This was perceived by her as a completely impossible task.
In order to try out the ideas in the book we divided the group of words into feminine and masculine and we then set about visualising every object either pink (feminine) or blue (masculine) as she clearly had to learn gender and spelling. For the feminine words we visually placed all the words one after the other into a large pink box (as that was one of the words) and then put all the masculine words into a large blue satchel (again one of the words).
When the test day arrived, she could visualise how the words were spelt and also what colour they were and therefore their gender. The child was really pleased.
Following the test the teacher asked them all how they had learnt the words. The child relayed this technique and the teacher thought it was really positive and commended it to the rest of the class.
I have found this book inspirational in enabling both children and adults to begin to overcome some of the difficulties that they have experienced in spelling.

Have you ever wished you could improve your reading, writing, spelling, maths, and your memory and learning skills? Well, try this. "Seeing Spells Achieving" takes you through a series of simple logical steps which build on each other to enable you or your children to visualise your way to success, developing skills you already possess. For 3 years, Olive Hickmott and Andrew Bendefy worked with children and adults in groups and privately. Some with learning difficulties and many of whom had dyslexic tendencies. Within hours considerable progress has been made and all ages have been amazed that they now have a new and exciting choice of 'how to' spell. "I can see every word that is being said and I can spell them too". "This is so easy, isn't it cheating?" "What I love about this is that it works. It is nothing like the way I have been taught before". "Being able to visualise is great and so useful for many things". Olive and Andrew have devised an easy to run, practise orientated model. Work on your own or with a parent, friend or teacher and allow yourself to break free from your own limiting beliefs on your abilities. You'll be amazed how quickly "Seeing Spells Achieving" enables you to look at things from a New Perspective - and enjoy a whole new world.
