          Certified Tutor and Testing Specialist for Dyslexia

    

  
speaking on

 


What is Dyslexia?

Causes, Warning Signs and Solutions

 

 

 

Dyslexia is the most common reason a bright child will struggle with spelling, writing,

or reading. Children with dyslexia also have difficulty:

      Memorizing their address, the alphabet, or the multiplication tables
      Learning to tie their shoes
      Writing some letters or numbers backwards past the end of first grade

If such children do NOT get the right type of help in school, they grow into adults

who dont read well. Those who receive the appropriate help can learn to succeed.

Janis Garcia will address what causes dyslexia, warning signs, solutions and what

adults with undiagnosed dyslexia can do about it.  Ms. Garcia offers comprehensive

assessment, diagnosis and tutoring.  Specialized tests can establish whether a

persons reading difficulty is due to dyslexia. She uses multi-sensory tutoring

that is supported by the latest   scientific reading research.
