Symptoms of a reading difficulty (often referred to as dyslexia) can include:
• Slow reading/writing
• Poor spelling
• Confusing similar words
• Difficulty organising thoughts on paper
• Needing to re-read paragraphs to understand them
• Difficulty concentrating and maintaining focus
• Letters/words moving about on the page or running into each other
• Difficulty telling left from right
• Poor self esteem
A reading difficulty can profoundly affect a child’s visual and academic development, with the long-term effect of these difficulties continuing into adulthood.
