The ticket to success

Here we provide you with tips and ideas, activities, materials, website links, and other resources for dyslexics.

In addition, we have taken a number of reading programs that target the components of dyslexia and described what each program has to offer. We've included websites and costs for these programs as well.

These tools and programs, coupled with formal therapy, can be just the ticket to success!

If you have suggestions for additional tools or resources we could include on these pages, please email them to us at dyslexiahelp@umich.edu. Please make sure you have permission to share anything that you send us, especially if photos or videos of people are included.

Success starts here!
