Most of the history of dyslexia has occurred during the last 25 years. Before that the condition was practically unknown.

Dyslexics see things differently. Their eyes are the same as those of non-dyslexics, but their brains interpret the signals differently. Because of this they learn differently and need to be taught in the way they learn, not in the traditional mold.

The whole point of a dyslexia test is to identify dyslexics so they can be helped. Dyslexia cannot be “cured”. Dyslexia treatment consists of teaching dyslexics how to learn in the ways that work for them. When they are taught how to do this they can overcome dyslexia and move on to enjoy its benefits.

Those who went through grade school more than 15 years ago almost all bear the scars of being hammered into molds that did not fit. They were ridiculed for their differences, looked at as retarded (which most are definitely not!), slow learners, etc. They were embarrassed and learn to hide their differences.

Millions of adult dyslexics today have never taken a dyslexia test. They still struggle with learning and reading difficulties that could be easily overcome if they were only known. A half-hour dyslexia test could make enormous improvements in their self-esteem and abilities.

There are a large number of different types of dyslexia to deal with. There is no standard definition, no real, workable way to sort them out into types and put them into nice, neat categories. Each one is different and needs to be evaluated and taught accordingly.

Dyslexia testing is not difficult or expensive; there’s even an online dyslexia test (for more info, click here) that takes half an hour, can be done from home or anywhere you can connect to the Internet and costs less than $60! If you or anyone you know might possibly be dyslexic, it’s really easy to find out for sure!
