Having a child with dyspraxia believing I have it, this book really touched me as I feel there was a lot I could relate to. The author of The Reason I Jump is Naok...

Re: Has anybody here recently gotten into employment?

Re: Driving

Does anyone know if there's any good driving instructor/schools that teach adults with dyspraxia how to drive? I mean I've only failed one test and I feel like my instructor wants to give up on me. Any advice would be appreciated please. My theory test will expire in 6 months. I'm desperate to pass!
