Parent of a 14 year old.

"Thank you so much! C seems to be happier/more relaxed now she has this diagnosis as if her struggles make sense and there's a reason for it all."

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 our dyslexia assessor Chrissy about dyslexia testing in Cornwall or online to see if it is the right option.
