Dyslexia Explained – Dyslexia – What is it?

The Oxford English Dictionary defines dyslexia as a disorder involving difficulty in learning to read words, letters and other symbols.

Dyslexia literally means 'trouble with words'. It is the term used to describe difficulties with spelling, writing and reading. The challenges can come in many different forms and are not limited to reversals of letters and words, a common misconception.

Dyslexia Australia’s definition:   A visual and experiential learning style that requires specific and alternative teaching methods in order to avoid learning disabilities and enhance abilities.  Read the new article Dyslexia Definitions.  Please vote for the definition you like.
