Dyslexia Symptoms in
Adults
Dyslexia has been little understood or noted for most of recorded
history. Almost all of the recorded history of dyslexia has been in the last 25 years.
Dyslexics see things differently. Their eyes are the same as those of non-dyslexics, but their brains interpret
the signals differently. Because of this they learn differently and need to be taught in the way they learn, not in
the traditional mold.
In the last 15 years elementary school procedure has been to routinely screen for learning disabilities dyslexia. Practically all who had problems with reading
were selected to go through a full-scale professional dyslexia test
and evaluation.
Those who went through grade school more than 15 years ago almost all bear the scars of being hammered into
molds that did not fit. They were ridiculed for their differences, looked at as retarded (which most are definitely
not!), slow learners, etc. They were embarrassed and learn to hide their differences.
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.
Dyslexia testing is not difficult or expensive or time-consuming.
There is an excellent online test available now that can be done in half an hour from any place there is an
Internet connection. If there is any possibility that a person might be dyslexic, they can find out for less than
the cost of a visit to their Doctor or Dentist!
