[quote=Anonymous]I was diagnosed with dyslexia this way - when my parents started working with me on spelling test practice I added lots of extra syllables, strings of consonants, odd vowels, etc. Also never have had trouble reading, and never needed accommodations. I did some phonics tutoring but I don’t really think it helped. I eventually just memorized how to spell most words. The only time it affects me now as an adult is with unusual names - I misread/add syllables still. [/quote]
