Dyslexia is a neurological condition that manifests itself as a learning incapacity. This disability varies widely but is usually identified by difficulties in spelling, sounding out and recognizing words. Dyslexics aren’t foolish, they just have information-processing differences and difficulties. Nevertheless they are often characterized as slow learners, put in special education classes and stigmatized rather than helped overcome their challenges. This makes identification and diagnosis of Dyslexia harder. Here are some of the prominent dyslexia symptoms that can indicate underlying dyslexia : A school-age kid with dyslexia might exhibit any of the following dyslexia symptoms : — Avoid reading or complain about the difficulty of reading. — Leave out parts of words or confuse the order of parts. — Pause, hesitate, often say’um’,'uh’ or’ah’ when speaking. — Use imprecise words, such as’stuff’ and’things,’ rather than proper names. — Confuse words that sound alike,eg’tornado’ for’volcano’ and’lotion’ for’ocean.’ — Have difficulty recollecting isolated pieces of verbal info, such as dates, names and lists. — Guess or make’wild stabs’ at words when reading. — depend significantly upon context to read. — Fear, fear or resist reading out loud. — Mispronounce and substitute words when reading aloud. — Perform disproportionately worse on multiple-choice tests than on other types. — Spell or write poorly.
