Home Dyslexia Test
There are very many children with learning disabilities. Dyslexia is one of the most frequently encountered cause of learning disabilities. Dyslexia seems to be caused by a miss-comunication between the eyes and the brain; the signals get sent but the brain does not interpret them clearly. One of the results is that dyslexics “see” things differently and need special training to be able to interpret them as non-dyslexics would.
Dyslexia frequently manifests itself in problems with reading. In order to read, a person must interpret letters grouped together on paper into words/thoughts. To read aloud they must convert these symbols into the sounds of spoken words. In reading silently they must translate these symbols into words and thoughts.
The word “dyslexia” itself, consists of “dys” -not working, as in “dysfunctional” and “lexia” – having to do with reading, words, documents. It is based on this often observed problem with reading.|The origin of the term “dyslexia” is in the idea of “problems with reading”. The word is made up of “dys” as in not functioning and “lexia” from pertaining to books, reading, word orders.
About 10% of the general population has some sort of dyslexia, in some degree. There are symptoms of dyslexia that many educators are trained to look for, such as difficulty with reading aloud. In the final analysis there is only one way to detect/prove the presence of dyslexia and measure its severity. And that is through dyslexia testing.
