[quote=Anonymous][quote]Dyslexia is a life long thing that kids learn to manage so I don’t see them graduating out of getting assistance for it. Wouldn’t school help and tutoring be the best ? [/quote] Dyslexia tutor here. The vast majority of the kids I work with get caught up to their peers in reading. Then, if they're young enough (1st/2nd/3rd grade) they can learn the rest at school. (If they don't do the tutoring until 4th grade or later, we have to teach them all of it because the school's reading instruction take place primarily in grades K-3.) You'd never know they had a problem with reading when they were younger. Of course, there are exceptions. Also - spelling tends to lag behind, and it's harder to get kids caught up in spelling.[/quote]
