What is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that is neurological
in origin. It is characterized by difficulties with accurate and
or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and decoding abilities.
These difficulties typically result from a deficit in the phonological
component of language that is often unexpected in relation to other
cognitive abilities and the provision of effective classroom instruction.
Secondary consequences may include problems in reading comprehension
and reduced reading experience that can impede growth of vocabulary
and background knowledge.
