Full Dyslexia Assessment Online


June 20, 2009

A common problem in most systems of education is that of children with learning disabilities. Probably the most common learning disability is that from dyslexia. 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. As a result, dyslexics (people with dyslexia) see things differently.

Dyslexia usually shows up first in reading problems. When someone reads, they are interpreting symbols on paper into words or thoughts. If they read aloud, they are converting symbols on paper into spoken words with their appropriate and correct sounds. Reading silently, they are converting symbols into 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. But there is really only one way to know for sure whether a person has dyslexia or not and to what degree. That is through a special dyslexic test.

This means that there is now an accurate and economical home dyslexia test that you can take in the privacy of your home or office (anywhere you have an Internet connection) at any time. It takes about half an hour and costs less than a dinner for two in a medium-good restaurant.

Might you be dyslexic? Do you know someone that might be? There are millions of adult dyslexics who are unaware that dyslexia is their problem. A quick test could be their first step in overcoming dyslexia. It could get them started to achieving their full potential and leading a better life! Click on any link above to get full details…
