My son is 7 years old and I believe he has dyslexia. Last year in first grade his teacher called a pac meeting because he was having trouble reading and writing in reversals, he never improved all year, and they wanted me to have him tested for dyslexia. Well I took him to the nureologist in September, my husband was unemployed due to being laid off from his job and we had no insurance when they wanted me to have him tested, so as soon as I got insurance we made the appt. for late september. They nuerologist wanted to have a nureophysc done witht he physcologist and when I made the appt. they told me they would not be submitting the insurance company and it was going to cost me 1500.00, I do not have that right now. So in the mean time I called every nuerologist in my insurance's book and they either don't have physcologists or they don't take children or deal with dyslexia. I have been so frustrated!

Tutorials and Share New Ideas. Over the Last Year The beta-test phase never made it to launch. Initially, the advances we were making with some new ideas seemed so promising that we thought the beta testing phase would come swiftly. Always it seemed just out of reach of becoming a true replacement possibility for the current version. Let’s take a minute for those who might not be that clear on the steps of software development testing. After deciding on a concept, the developing organization starts with the software engineer and the various potential components prepared by the development team are coordinated, then there comes alpha testing where we in-house test for bugs and glitches as much as we can, followed by a beta testing where we ask a select group to seek and find anything we may have missed. Ideally, after a suitable period to allow beta testers time enough to thoroughly explore, development gets everything back to go over. Once development has addressed the reported bugs and solved all problems, a release version is offered. The development obstacles may have been solvable with enough resources. However, the funding criterion where we have applied for grant moneys didn’t allow for this concept as a solution. Painfully apparent as it might seem, technically advanced solutions are still not as warmly utilized as one-on-one tutelage with the technologies of yesteryear such as print materials and the more marginally accepted video resources.

Mind mapping is a graphical thought organisation technique that helps memory and note-taking from lectures as well as stimulating creative thought, supporters say. Mind mapping is currently trendy within computer programming circles in the United States for organising data. A highly trained mind and memory, which can be achieved through games like chess, can add up to two years on to your life span Philip Chambers, world mind-mapping champion But it is also very welcome news for dyslexics, as it can consist solely of images. Philip Chambers, current world mind-mapping champion and an accelerated-learning trainer at Learning Technologies in Staines, Middlesex, UK, said mind maps used more of the brain's resources.

How can I train to teach children with dyslexia? Where can I find a test for dyslexia? B A C K G R O U N D C O L O R Dyslexia and Diet Give your children cod liver oil pills, but avoid fresh orange juice! This seems to be the message in these three articles/reports. John Bradford, William Ferguson and Dot outline what is known (or perhaps guessed) about the effects of diet on the many dyslexic children who also suffer from dyslexia and ADD or ADHD. Seems worth a try! Read this page in Spanish Dyslexia and ADD or ADHD As part of our research program, Direct Learning examined the assessments of 100 dyslexic children and found that 46 of them were also reported to be suffering from Attention Deficit difficulties (ADD or ADHD) such as lack of concentration, behavior problems and/or allergic reactions to certain foods/drinks. Children and teenagers suffering from Attention Deficit Disorders find it hard to stay focused on the main thing they are dealing with: their brain finds it almost impossible at times to resist paying attention to something else which is of no importance: for example, someone walking across the room, another child dropping their pencil, a car passing outside. This is due to the working of the 'filters' in the brain which help us to prioritise and concentrate on one thing. The result can be difficulty sustaining attention, difficulty listening, a struggle to follow through instructions, difficulty with organization, avoiding activities requiring sustained mental effort, and being easily distracted and forgetful.

If a pupil you teach appears to speak and listen normally, yet they are unable to read and spell, then there may be more to check out. Some of the well-known symptoms of dyslexia are: confusion over the direction letters face (b/d, p/9, p/q); difficulties with left and right; difficulties with keeping organized; difficulties with spelling difficulties with directions (e.g. east and west); missing out words when reading.

First he learns to read. Then he reads to learn. Because the child with dyslexia battles to read, he is therefore also hampered in the learning situation. What are the symptoms and cause of dyslexia, and what can be done to help these children? By Benetta Strydom Dyslexia: Beating the Back-to-Front Battle By Clare O'Donoghue Dyslexia: Is the Shoe Perhaps on the Wrong Foot? Reading is the most important skill that a child must acquire at school, because one must learn to read to be able to read to learn. The implication of this is that the child who is a poor reader will usually also be a poor learner. Unfortunately poor reading skills, and therefore poor learning skills, have become a reality for an alarming number of people.

KIDS BECOME GIFTED SPEED READERS - by George Stancliffe Almost two years ago, a lady who had signed up for one of my speed reading courses showed up early on the first day of class to privately inform me that she had a reading disability, so that I wouldn't be too frustrated at the poor performance that she was expecting in the class. I gave her some words of encouragement and told her that she might do better than she thought she would. I'm glad I encouraged her. She ended the course reading 18,000 words per minute. While it's not uncommon for children to attain such reading speeds, I've only had one adult student in my life who could go faster. Last night I just finished talking to my friend, Troy, who is a school teacher. He and I have the same hobby: We teach children to speed read. It was nice to find out that Troy has noticed the same pattern that I have noticed in our speed reading students: Some "Learning Disabled" people are EXTREMELY gifted when it comes to speed reading. Specifically, the children who have ADD and Dyslexia tend to catch on to speed reading better than most other children, based on what Troy and I have seen in our speed reading classes (in fact, the charter school where Troy has taught at for the past 2 years has 50% of the students DIAGNOSED with Attention Deficit Disorder [ADD]) . I know other speed reading instructors who have noticed the same pattern with ADD (including ADHD) and Dyslexic children also. Recently, new evidence has come forward that verifies what we speed reading instructors have discovered on our own.

Ten to 15% of the US school population has dyslexia. Dyslexics have an inherited neurological difference, resulting in language, perceptual, processing, and attention/concentration differences. Yet only 5% of individuals with dyslexia are ever properly diagnosed and given appropriate help, so over 85% of adult illiterates are dyslexic. This lack of literacy limits their ability to become successful, productive adults, find jobs, or function independently within their communities. Yet, with the proper recognition and intervention, dyslexics become successful individuals using their talents and skills to enrich our society. Dyslexia is a language disability, not a reading disability, so not only does it affect the ability to learn to read, write, and spell by conventional methods, it affects the ability to communicate in more subtle ways. Dyslexics have processing, perceptual, and attention/concentration problems. The majority of ADD individuals are also dyslexic. Learning to read can be a problem for individuals with dyslexia or ADD.

But most of you haven't had the chance to get to know me or see what I do, so I'll start by telling you a little bit about myself. In 1980 I became convinced that speed reading could become a universal skill for all children if it were just made available in the right way to the general public. At that time the only speed reading courses available were those which cost hundreds of dollars per student. Also, these same courses were directed at adults, mostly college students and business owners.
