What is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a language-based learning disability. Dyslexia refers to a cluster of symptoms, that result in people having difficulties with specific language skills, particularly reading. Students with dyslexia usually experience difficulties with other language skills such as spelling, writing, and pronouncing words. It is referred to as a learning disability because dyslexia can make it very difficult for a student to succeed academically in the typical instructional environment.
Dyslexia is a neurological condition caused by a different wiring of the brain. Research indicates that dyslexia has no relationship to intelligence. Individuals with dyslexia are neither more nor less intelligent than the general population. But some say the way individuals with dyslexia think can actually be an asset in achieving success. People with dyslexia are overrepresented in the arts, athletics, sciences, and business ownership. They tend to be creative problem solvers and experts in their chosen field.
At 303 Learning we believe that all students, regardless of the severity of their dyslexia, can become fluent and independent readers. We are committed to ensuring that your child reaches his or her potential.
