New Dyslexia Software

Published by on June 1, 2011

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. 95% of adult dyslexics are unaware that dyslexia is what makes them “different”. The signals from the eyes of dyslexics are interpreted differently, causing them to see things differently. 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.}

The half-hour test is quite accurate and costs less than dinner for two at a medium-class restaurant! It permits a full dyslexia assessment that you receive immediately after taking the test.

There is also dyslexia software in the form of children’s games that can identify children with learning disabilities related to dyslexia. 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.

These new software tools promise to be a great help in making it easier to test and identify those with problems of dyslexia.
