The webinar also presented strategies and techniques for teachers to support struggling readers. The live webcast, delivered by Ms Bríd Ní Chatháin, presented strategies and techniques for teachers who want to support struggling readers.

After the webinar, Ms Hazelle Preclaro-Ongtengco, Associate Professor at the UP College of Education Reading Department and Vice President of the Philippine Dyslexia Foundation, gave a short presentation on dyslexia.
