Dyslexia Software Makes Testing Easier
It is expected that there are well over a million undiagnosed adult dyslexics in the U.S. Approximately 1 out of every 10 people has some type of dyslexia to some degree. Today, school-age children are routinely screened for dyslexia. But this is a relatively new development, only being widespread for the last 15 years.
Those of us that graduated high school more than 15 years ago were never tested. Some 90+ per cent of adults with dyslexia have no idea that it is dyslexia that has been causing them problems.
Dyslexics see thing differently from non-dyslexics. This means that dyslexics often have difficulty in reading, spelling and pronouncing new words.
With the proper training, they can do almost everything that non-dyslexics can. The problem is in finding them, getting them tested so they can be helped.
Now new dyslexia software makes the testing process fast and easy over the Internet.. It lets you take a full dyslexia test online.}
This can be done at home, from your office… anywhere you can have access to the Internet. You get a full dyslexia assessment immediately after the test. It comes in a form that you can print out and read, along with the accompanying explanations.
For children with learning disabilities there is dyslexia software for special games that enable teachers or parents to easily identify those children with dyslexia problems.
The games come in different types and versions for different age groups.
Parents, teachers, any adult supervising the games can observe children playing and quickly identify which have probable dyslexia problems.
The first step to overcoming dyslexia is to identify its presence by testing. These new software tools are a tremendous help in doing this early identification.
