Adult Dyslexia Testing
The story of dyslexia has been one of long struggle in the darkness of ignorance, culminating in tremendous strides forward in progress in the past twenty-five years.
Dyslexics see things differently. A dyslexic’s eyes are exactly the same as those of non-dyslexics, but their brains interpret the signals differently. Thus they learn differently. They need to be taught in the way they learn, not in the common mold.
In the last 15 years elementary school procedure has been to routinely screen for dyslexia in children. Practically all children 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.
There are many different types of dyslexia. In fact, there is no standard “type”; everyone is different. Dyslexics cannot be classified and put into different “boxes” to process. Each one must be tested and evaluated separately.
Today there are literally millions of adult dyslexics that are totally 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 in all likelihood never be able to reach their full potential.
