Dyslexia is a common learning disorder that affects the ability to read, write, and spell. It is characterized by difficulties in processing language, particularly in phonological awareness and decoding written words. People with dyslexia often have normal intelligence and good thinking skills, but struggle with reading fluency and comprehension. Treatment for dyslexia typically includes specialized instruction, such as Orton-Gillingham or multisensory learning approaches. Accommodations, such as assistive technology or extra time for exams, may also be provided to support individuals with dyslexia. Early identification and intervention can greatly improve outcomes for individuals with dyslexia.
