About
Chrissy Hyatt Dyslexia Assessor

Do I need a dyslexia test?

Dyslexia is a specific learning difficulty that primarily affects skills involved in accurate and fluent reading and spelling. It is a lifelong condition that impacts how the brain processes information.

 

People with dyslexia often experience challenges in reading fluently, spelling, and writing speed. Common signs may include:

​

  • struggles learning letter sounds

  • difficulties remembering sequences such as the alphabet or days of the week

  • difficulty blending letters to form words

  • confusing visually similar words when reading

  • problems with spelling

  • slower reading and writing speeds

  • needing to re-read paragraphs for comprehension

 

Dyslexia is not related to intelligence, and with proper support, individuals can achieve success.

​

If you or your child are experiencing signs of dyslexia, contact Chrissy about dyslexia testing to see if it is the right option.

What happens during a dyslexia test?

A comprehensive assessment includes a variety of tests that evaluate different skills, such as:

​

  • Underlying ability

  • Working memory

  • Phonological awareness

  • Phonological processing speed

  • Spelling

  • Writing

  • Reading

 

Testing for dyslexia takes about three hours, and within two to three weeks, you will receive a 25-30-page follow-up report via email. This report includes individualised recommendations to support school, college, or university learning.
