What are the most common ways in which dyslexia shows itself?
About 60% of dyslexic people have phonological difficulties and struggle to sort out the sounds within words. This means that they have problems with reading, writing and spelling. The majority of dyslexic children have difficulty with language, memory and sequencing processes of basic mathematics.
The main area of inefficiency in learning is phonological processing – the ability to hear, store, reproduce and manipulate the sounds of speech, such as the sequence of syllables in car park or barbecue (rather than par cark and cubeybar). However there are associated difficulties in speed of information processing and character recognition. Older individuals may find that they are embarrassed by an inability to remember lists, common facts such as addresses and names, and to organise aspects of daily life involving time or instructions. (Many of these involve mental lists.) Sequences of all kinds can be difficult to control.
Children or students who are dyslexic have phonological difficulties, that is, they find it difficult to sort out the sounds within words. This means that they have problems with reading, writing and spelling. The majority of dyslexic children have difficulty with text, memory and the sequencing processes of basic mathematics.

The majority of dyslexic children have difficulty with language, memory and sequencing processes of basic mathematics. At what age does dyslexia become a problem? Because dyslexia is neurologically-based, children are born with dyslexia, but it is when they begin to learn using words, and sometimes other symbols, that it becomes a noticeable problem. Please read our pages on “The young child.” What level of intelligence does it affect? Dyslexia can occur at any level of intellectual ability. It occurs in all socio-economic groups and can accompany, but is not a result of, lack of motivation, emotional disturbance, sensory impairment or limited opportunities. Can dyslexia be cured? Each dyslexic person’s difficulties are different and vary from slight to very severe disruption of the learning process

Can dyslexia be cured? Each dyslexic person’s difficulties are different and vary from slight to very severe disruption of the learning process. There is no total cure but the effects of dyslexia can be alleviated by skilled specialist teaching and committed learning. On the positive side there is a hypothesis that the neurological anomalies also give some dyslexic people visual, spatial and lateral thinking abilities that enable them to be successful in a wide
