PHILOSOPHY

"I never teach my pupils, I only attempt to provide
the conditions in which they can learn". Albert Einstein

The inspirational words of Albert Einstein and Aristotle's: 'Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all', have helped lay the foundations of the teaching philosophy in 'i love dyslexia' (ILD) EFL School. The big vision of ILD through the successful learning of English, is each student with dyslexia and special educational needs (SEN) to experience not only success in the foreign language acquiring a Global voice and Global identity, so crucial for the the 21st century, but also personal empowerment and self-awareness, necessary of his happiness, success and personal growth.

In 2009, when there was NOT a single course in European Union and globally highly specialized in EFL-FL and dyslexia, the English as Foreign Language Teacher - Special Educator, researcher, author and teachers' trainer Mrs. Aggeliki Pappa looked ahead. After 8 years of personal dedication to academic research and innovative pedagogical practice devoted to all students' right to develop the English global voice and identity, professor Pappa created the 1st Method globally, 3Dlexia for English Method & Paradigm for inclusive EFL/ESL English language teaching. To be able to teach 3Dlexia Method, especially to students (from early learning age to adults) with dyslexia and special educational needs (SEN), Ms Pappa also founded the 'i love dyslexia' EFL school, the 1st first and only highly specialized organization internationally in its field, aiming to develop the crucial life skill of the Global English voice and identity to thousands of students with special educational needs (SEN) in a transformative way, as well as to support teachers globally and contribute in the research and development of this new and almost unexplored field of studies, supporting millions of both typical and SEN learners all around the world. The successful results of 3Dlexia for English Method to thousands of students led to Ms. Pappa being announced 2 times in the 50 Top Educators in the World for the Global Teacher Prize 2016 & 2017, the 1 Million dollar prize for educators. In 2018, Ms. Pappa was announced the winner of the UK Alumni Awards by the British Council UK receiving the public TRUST of HRH King Charles in Stavros Niarchos Foundation, with 'i love dyslexia' EFL school being officially announced by the British Council UK as the 1st globally institution for inclusive teaching for EFL/ES to students with dyslexia and SEN. In 2022 following the exponential impact of 3Dlexia for the English Method globally, including its incorporation to the public education of Argentina, the "i love dyslexia' EFL school was announced in the Top 10 Schools in the World for Innovation, for the World's Best School Prizes by T4 Education.
