Dyslexia is a learning disorder that involves difficulty reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and learning how they relate to letters and words (decoding). Also called a reading disability, dyslexia is a result of individual differences in areas of the brain that process language.
Dyslexia is not due to problems with intelligence, hearing, or vision. Most children with dyslexia can succeed in school with tutoring or a specialized education program. Emotional support also plays an important role.
Symptoms of Dyslexia: Once your child is in school, dyslexia symptoms may become more apparent, including:
-
Reading well below the expected level for age
-
Problems processing and understanding what is heard
-
Difficulty finding the right word or forming answers to questions
-
Problems remembering the sequence of things
-
Difficulty seeing (and occasionally hearing) similarities and differences in letters and words
-
Inability to sound out the pronunciation of an unfamiliar word
-
Difficulty spelling
-
Spending an unusually long time completing tasks that involve reading or writing
-
Avoiding activities that involve reading
