[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with others that it seems worth it to move ahead with an evaluation, but also be prepared that they don't have the resources to actually get your child where they need to be with reading. You need to hire a 1:1 tutor who works with dyslexic kids (Orton Gillingham or similar). [/quote] This. Schedule an eval but find an OG or Wilson tutor for your child. It's expensive and it is a long term fix, not a short term one (think 1-2 years of twice a week at $75-125 an hour). But it's likely your school cannot or does not offer this specialized tutoring. So start with the tutoring as soon as you can. [/quote]
