Steve Chinn, PhD, PGCE. DipEdMan, AMBDA, FRSA
Steve has worked with students with SEN for four decades. He was Head of three specialist schools, including one in the States and one he founded in the UK which received several awards, including Beacon School status. Funding from this enabled Steve to deliver the UK’s first PG course on dyscalculia.
He has written several books, including ‘The Trouble with Maths’ which won a Times Educational Supplement award. He has also published video tutorials so that parents and schools can access help at low cost.
He has lectured in over 30 countries, including training for the MoE in Singapore.
In 2017 he was awarded the BDA’s Lifetime Achievement Award. He also received awards from the Dyslexia Institute and Positive Dyslexia for his work on dyscalculia.
It has been his research, teaching and listening experiences with students who have difficulties with learning maths that has convinced him that by working with them we can discover so much about how all children can learn maths more effectively.
His Maths Explained video tutorials and worksheets have sold in over 30 countries
He was the first Chair of the BDA’s dyscalculia committee. He co-founded and then Chaired CReSTeD.
He co-initiated the founding of the Dyslexia Archive at Oxford University
