[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We hired a tutor from https://www.asdec.org/. My kids are both dyslexic and they have Tourette’s. I don’t know if that matters. But a neurologist told me to find out what they were really good at and continue to stress that so that the things they weren’t good at, didn’t come to the prominent part of defining who they were. They did become proficient readers, but not amazing readers. They were both very athletic, and so being poured a lot of time and effort into that, and it helped with their self-esteem and having friends.[/quote] +1 could have written the same post, child is reading at grade level in 6th and excelling in sports. Child reads for pleasure, I would not have guessed that even 1 year ago. Side note, it has been a long 4 year journey and we still have 1-2 years of tutoring before child is remediated. [/quote]
