My gf can teach anyone, anything and do it well, but she can't do the paperwork!?

Question

So without the academic side of things, someone who is (extremely) naturally gifted at teaching (especially to children) cannot follow their career hopes because they cannot fill out a form without making a mistake.

Any advice?

I've thought of such things like nightschool (taking English and Maths again) and such similar things?

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated, ta.

Answer 1

what sorts of mistakes does she make? if it is something like spelling or reversing her letters, she may have dyslexia, which, with proper professional assistance, can be correctly simply enough. A learning disablity should never hold someone back from their dreams.

Answer 2

Has she been tested for a learning disability?  If she can't fill out a form without making mistakes, yet is bright enough to teach, I have to wonder if she sees the same things on forms as the rest of us.
