​

About 1 in 10 people have dyslexia. Some common signs are:

  1. Trouble learning to read, even with normal learning opportunities.

  2. Difficulty with the sounds in language.

  3. Reading slowly or making mistakes like skipping words.

  4. Diffiulty with spelling and grammar.

  5. Problems with speaking and understanding language.

  6. Challenges with organising and managing time.

​

Dyslexia varies in severity, and it's often found with other conditions like dyspraxia, ADHD, or dyscalculia. Finding dyslexia early and getting help is important. With support, people with dyslexia can learn strategies to manage their challenges and do well in school, work, and life.
