Dyslexics, using a visual-spatial or "picture thinking" learning style, are creative and talented.  We also tend to lose our focus more easily than others. If you think dyslexia means problems with reading, you are correct; but there is more, much more to it.              

Switching letters 'b' for 'd' is one example of confusion with letters. Other dyslexic traits include transpositions, substitutions, additions and omissions that occur with individual letters, whole words, sentences or paragraphs while reading, speaking or writing.  Does your child, for example, look at words like 'the' but reads 'and' instead?  Most of the time, this is not a vision problem. The difference is how the brain interprets what the eyes see.  Additionally, dyslexia affects all areas of functioning: the bodies sense of timing, balance and movement, vision and hearing.

Have you been told your child has a language-based learning disability, an auditory processing disorder, reading disability or a focusing issue?  These labels mean the same thing as dyslexia.  With over 90 different labels to describe learning difficulties it can be very confusing. 

The core of dyslexia is the ability to think with pictures.  Using their creative talents the geniuses of the world create, invent, develop, putting their talents to use.  You can learn how to use your creative talents in the same way!   _____________________________________________________________________________________                                                                                                                        

After years of testing, vision therapy, special reading classes, research,

and the list goes on and on, the only thing that helped my children 

with their issues with reading, writing, math, focus, and more is the

Davis program that Cathy Cook administered to my children.
