Why Adults Should Test for Dyslexia Symptoms
Dyslexia has been little understood or noted for most of recorded history. Almost all of the recorded history of dyslexia has been in the last 25 years.
Dyslexics learn differently. Their eyes see the same but their brains interpret the signals from the eyes differently than those of non-dyslexics. It’s O.K., many famous people have been dyslexic. But to reach full potential they need to be taught differently, according to their needs.
In the last 15 years elementary school procedure has been to routinely screen for learning disabilities dyslexia. Practically all who had problems with reading were selected to go through a full-scale professional dyslexia test and evaluation.
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.
Today there are millions of dyslexic adults still struggling to deal with the world through a dyslexic lens, not realizing that dyslexia is their problem and a simple dyslexia test could set them on the road to life-changing improvements.
One of the problems in helping dyslexics is that there are many different types of dyslexia. Dyslexia takes many different forms; all dyslexics are different. They cannot be readily sorted into categories and then treated the same as a group.
Today there are literally millions of adult dyslexics that are unaware that they are dyslexic. That is why dyslexia tests for adults are so important. With a test, they can be identified and helped. Without being tested, they will never be able to reach their full potential.
