[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I would work with a reading tutor outside if school. My kid is in high school and I still suspect dyslexia. Full neuropsychological testing done two times. Apparently no dyslexia (ADHD diagnosis). He was a late reader (7 years old/2nd grade) and still mispronounces words in conversation  regularly. It is certain blended sounds where he makes the wrong sound. Hates to read, but is in advanced level English classes and has a really high vocabulary. Struggles with the verbal part of foreign language class, but understands and reads it fine. Who knows? Is there such a thing as mild dyslexia that tests don’t catch? [/quote]

That’s called slow verbal processing. My kid has it. Unless the teacher or coach or camp leader gives clear steps, nothing gets processed or retained well.  All those “math talk” classes where half the time kids are guessing and sharing their wrong approaches and answers really messed up my child’s learning. [/quote]

Thank you — I am going to research this right now! [/quote]
