[quote=Anonymous]Welcome to the club, OP! Your daughter is going to do fine, and it’s going to take some hard work on both of your parts. Have you read any books about dyslexia yet? The classic is Overcoming Dyslexia by Sally Shawitz and it is still accurate and supportive and a best first step. You almost certainly are going to need outside tutoring. The most effective is known as academic language therapy, and you can either search for one (search Google for academic language therapist or CALT or go to ALTAread.org) or you can contact ASDEC, our local resource for academic language therapy. Your school may also have a list of dyslexia providers. You’ll want to check credentials, though, and knowing what to look for can be confusing. What did the neuropsych report specifically recommend/refer you to?[/quote]
