Types of Dyslexia
Dyslexia is a learning disability which hinders a persons ability to spell or read. There are many different types of dyslexia. Dyslexia is diagnosed by a doctor such as a neuropsychologist, a developmental pediatrician, neurologist or educational psychologist.
Some symptoms of dyslexia include difficulty learning letters, distinguising word sounds, and confusion reading sentences in the correct order and direction.
Neglect Dyslexia
Neglect dyslexia is a condition where a person neglects to read one side of a word. This is most common in longer words, or compound words. For example when reading the word "stairway" the reader may only see "way" or "stair".

Treating Dyslexia
It is crucial to diagnose dyslexia at an early age. The sooner it is diagnosed, the sooner it can be treated. For many school age children, it is best to sit down with the school and create and IEP (individual education program). An IEP will give the child special care and will help them to cope with their learning disability.

One of the first steps to treating dyslexia are to learn your child's weaknesses. Some children have trouble reading, while others have problems with speaking, math or writing. Some children may even have a combination of these challenges. Once you are aware of their areas of weakness you will know the areas to concentrate on most. A good place to start treating dyslexia is letters. Try using flash cards to review letters and sounds with your child. Then continue by working on phonics. Another suggestion is to hire a tutor who can work with you child. There are also many programs or games that your child can play which will help to treat their dyslexia.
