Dyslexia Academic Support

At Specialisted, we understand that students with dyslexia learn everything differently. That’s why we offer Dyslexia Academic Support to give their best in school. We not only support students directly but also guide parents and teachers to have a better understanding of what is dyslexia and how we can support it.

What is Dyslexia?

Dyslexia is a condition in which a child has difficulty writing, reading, and spelling. It doesn’t mean that the child isn’t intelligent, many people with dyslexia are very smart and efficient in different ways as their brain’s functionality is unusual when it comes to reading and language.

What Causes Dyslexia?

Dyslexia is often genetic; it runs in families. It is connected to how the brain responds to language and reading. Scientists are still figuring out more about its causes but we do understand that early support might lead to a big difference.

Signs of Dyslexia

Signs of dyslexia vary from child to child, but some common ones include:

•   Poor spelling and pronunciation
•   Mixing up the letters and disturbing word order
•   Trouble reading and speaking out words
•   Hesitating to read out loud
•   Feeling stressed out about schoolwork
•   Getting tensed by long instructions

If you notice any of these signs, it is the right time to look into Dyslexia Academic Support

How to Help Children with Dyslexia

There are various ways teachers and parents can help out a child with dyslexia. Following are some helpful methods:

1. Use different senses: like sound, touch, and sight while teaching.
2. Teach phonics: breaking down words and making sounds.
3.     Give clear and precise instructions.
4. Use tools: like speech-to-text apps.
5. Praise efforts: appreciate even for the little efforts to build confidence.
6.     Allow extra time to complete tests and assigned tasks.
7. Buddy systems: pair them with welcoming classmates.

These little changes might help the students gain interest and feel more confident.
