Dyslexia is a learning disability that impacts the brain’s ability to read, write, spell, and organize information. It often goes undiagnosed until children are in elementary school or older because it affects reading fluency more frequently than comprehension.
Developing effective social skills is critical for all children.

Every night I struggle with my 9-year-old son to get him to do his homework. He cries and resists doing the assignments. We spend over 2 hours doing homework that his teacher says should take about 30 minutes. I know that he comes home exhausted and I feel terrible forcing him to do the work. Can you give me some tips on how I can help my son?
Children with dyslexia often have emotional issues because of the frustration they experience from not being able to read and perform other literacy activities efficiently.
The first few years of every child’s school life determine their self-image and feelings of self-worth.
Literacy activities like reading, writing, and spelling, require more attention, brainpower, and focus for children with dyslexia. Usually, reading is difficult for them. Everything they have to do all day is profoundly challenging.
Reading is one of the most important skills that children learn in school.
Dyslexia is no respecter of persons.
“There’s different kinds of intelligence and everyone has their ability to be brilliant.” ~ Jamie Trevor Oliver
