Dyslexia is learning disorder that interferes with reading. However, other areas are often impacted such as spelling, math, and written language. From a neurological standpoint, dyslexia is a disorder of information processing. Although dyslexia is often associated with language problems, most common characteristics are actually difficulties with processing visual information. As the individual looks at or sees visual stimuli (e.g., reading from a book or copying notes from the blackboard), they struggle interpreting that information efficiently. As such, they mispronounce or misplace words, or write down the wrong information. Common mistakes are confusing bs an ds, while reading, or writing letters and numbers backwards. Although individuals do not actually see letters and words backwards, per se, they nonetheless struggle with information-input (e.g., making sense of what they see). Dyslexia is life-long condition, but interventions and academic support can assist at improving the individual’s learning. Many of these children require extra time on assignments or exams, individualized tutoring, assistance with note-taking, and supplementing reading with oral instruction as much as possible.
