New Dyslexia Test
Dyslexia seems to be caused by faulty communication between the eyes and the brain; the eyes send the signals but the brain does not interpret these signals well. The result is that dyslexic people (dyslexics) see things differently. Dyslexics must have special training to be able to interpret what they see in the same ways as non-dyslexics would.
The first sign of dyslexia is often difficulty in reading. In reading you need to see the letters clearly and then interpret these letters into words and the words into sounds and thoughts/ideas. Various types of dyslexia can complicate this process of perception and translation
The word “dyslexia” consists of “dys” – not working, as in “dysfunctional” and “lexia” – as in “lexicon” a dictionary of words or terms. This origin comes from the often observed problem that those with dyslexia have with reading.
Approximately 1 person in every 10 has some type of dyslexia, to some degree.
There are symptoms of dyslexia that many educators are trained to look for, such as difficulty with reading aloud. But there is really only one way to know for sure whether a person has dyslexia or not and to what degree.
That is by taking a professionally prepared special dyslexia test.
Fortunately, in the last year or so, there is now an excellent accredited dyslexia test online.
You can get an online dyslexia test that you can take at home, on your computer, over the Internet.
The entire test takes a little over half an hour. Also, it’s very economical; costs less than a visit to your Doctor!
Do you ever have trouble reading? Are you dyslexic? Ever take a test for dyslexia? Do you know someone who might be dyslexic? A simple test could change their lives for the better!
