My 12-year-old daughter was just diagnosed with a learning disability yesterday in the IEP meeting at my daughter’s school. My daughter is very bright and very self confident with the things she does. I really just need some information on tutoring and self motivated programs that will assist my child in becoming better In her school curriculum and a life changing aspect for herself along with her parents’ moral support. If you can help me with any type of information regarding my Child’s learning disability, I will really appreciate the support. Thank you.

Please send information for young adults testing for dyslexia as well as providers, if possible. The evaluation is for my 25 year old son. When he was younger, he had several evaluations. School, for him, was always a struggle. After high school, he's been drifting and is wanting to complete college. We need to have a current testing composite for him. I'd prefer a comprehensive program like Boston Children's Hospital only for 25 + yrs. My son lives in Houston. Is there a specialist you recommend in Houston? Or, is there a comprehensive program in another city you highly recommend?
I am interested in as much information as possible regarding Dyslexia. My 14 year old son was diagnosed when he was 7 and my 22 year old daughter was diagnosed when she was 15. Please direct me to as many websites as possible regarding Dyslexia. My son will be attending high school in Delaware next year and I am worried sick because public schools here and most private school are not equipped for teaching him.
My oldest daughter is 12 and in sixth grade. She has dyslexia but until this fall her reading level was close to grade level. She has an IEP and gets Barton tutoring weekly. Recently, she seems to be struggling more with reading, particularly reading out loud. She reads words from all over the page and makes more sight word mistakes. We don't know why this is happening. Can you suggest any articles or legitimate websites that may help us with this? Is there any research that shows a link between puberty and a decrease in reading fluency?
If one is Left-handed, but made to be Right, does that complicate this condition? My only child is Left handed, my brother is, and I was the 1st born in a large family- in the early 50's. thank goodness for spell check right click...
My question is, even though my son seems to be getting all the interventions he needs, should we have him officially tested for Dyslexia? My gut says ‘yes’, the more information we have about his struggling areas and the cause, the better off we will be helping him. But many people at the school and other parents have said, no, it’s not worth the money or stress since he’s getting what he needs.
We have a 7th grader with dyslexia and ADHD. We live in Oklahoma where resources for remediation and assistance are so scarce. He goes to a private school which has helped but I feel that he is getting more stressed and more behind as he gets older with the more reading that he will have. We are already members of Bookshare (which he doesn't use as often as he should since it requires sitting and listening). Is he just going to have to find ways of compensating?
