Andy Salmon, under the guise of Sir Linkalot, introduces children of all ages and abilities to the 'World of Linking' to help them learn any fact with the focus being literacy and numeracy.
Many dyslexia associations endorse the product as rote learning simply doesn't work for the children they work with. Students, whose mother tongue isn't English, have said that taking words off the page and animating them in this way is knocking down barriers as English is far from a phonetic language.
There is a huge amount of audience participation as children are asked to 'think of links'. He is a high-octane, one-off who is passionate about his subject. Children of all ages thoroughly enjoy his presentations as he is highly entertaining.
He has presented to 150,000 children and 15,000 teachers at 600 schools (450 primary and 150 secondary) and had two books published about his linking methodology. He has created an app that won the 'Best Educational App' award at BETT 2020, Europe's leading edtech expo. Countdown's Susie Dent is on the app as Lady Lexicographer. She reveals the story of certain words on the app that have an interesting story to tell, known as ''Susie's Stories''
He is currently in conversations with the BBC and CoComelon about an animated TV show.
With 90% of children, it's down to confidence which linking instils....in spades!
A genuine gamechanger.
