Practically all of the story of dyslexia has been written during the last twenty-five years. Before that what we now know as dyslexia was practically a mystery.

Dyslexics see things differently. Their eyes are the same as those of non-dyslexics, but their brains interpret the signals received in different manners. For this reason they learn differently. They must be taught in the way they learn, not in the usual manner.

For a little over 15 years now, elementary schools have routinely screened for learning abilities dyslexia. For more information on this subject, Click Here. Any child who had problems with reading was selected to go through full-scale professional testing for dyslexia followed by individual evaluation.

Before about 15 years ago, dyslexics were lumped in with the rest of the students and had to take their chances. Most were treated badly by the educational system, called lazy, slow learners, underachievers. They were made to feel ashamed of and embarrassed by their differences and learned to conceal them.

Today there are millions of dyslexic adults still struggling to deal with the world through a dyslexic lens, not realizing that dyslexia is their problem and a simple dyslexia test could set them on the road to life-changing improvements.

There are many different types of dyslexia. In fact, there is no standard “type”; everyone is different. Dyslexics cannot be classified and put into different “boxes” to process. Each one must be tested and evaluated separately.

For as yet undiscovered adult dyslexics a test for dyslexia could be a life-changing experience! Once diagnosed the dyslexic person can be helped, taught how to overcome his or her dyslexic problems and reach their full personal potential.
