Who Uses It?

Me is designed to be used by parents or educators working with a person who has learning difficulties. It uses clear language to explain personal and intimate areas of life, which are often very subtle and difficult to explain. When the Me resources are used within the home and school environment, learning is enhanced. Parents are able to endorse and repeat what is learned at school, and vice versa. Keep it simple – it’s hard enough to learn without everyone using different words to teach the same thing.
