Dyslexia in Children

Before going further into the article, let me give you some information about Dyslexia. Dyslexia is a condition of learning disability, causes difficulty with reading and writing. Dyslexia is basically a condition that presents a person's difficulty in processing information that is usually related to short-term memory deficiency and visual coordination.

There are various ways in which you can teach children with Dyslexia. In general, there is no particular or definite pattern of teaching children with Dyslexia due to the fact that there are many different children with their own individualities and characters as well as learning abilities for cognition and obtaining skills. A teacher has to create such an atmosphere and conditions in order to facilitate children cope with the tasks.

Focus on phonics. For dyslexic children, phonics helps learning to read happen at a faster pace. A word is broken down into syllables and sounds. One must first learn what each syllable is supposed to sound like (and then how they sound together). If you teach phonics to your child early, it will help him later on.

The most efficient and successful treatment for dyslexia is educational one to tutoring one. First of all the teacher should focus on phonetics, especially on phonetic decoding. This practice involves breaking words into separate sounds and then again rearranging these sounds into different words. This method improves phonetic as we as reading decoding skills. Another treatment can be done by formation and developing software and modules skills.

There is no cure for dyslexia, but dyslexic individuals can learn to read and write with appropriate education or treatment. There is wide research evidence indicating that specialized phonics instruction can help remediate the reading deficits. Dyslexics need your love, support and care. If you treat them properly and carefully, there is no reason why he/she will not grow to be a normal human being!
