WHAT IS DYSLEXIA? 

Dyslexia is neurobiological and often runs in families. It is characterized by difficulties with accurate and fluent word recognition, poor spelling and decoding abilities despite normal or above-average intelligence. Dyslexia is lifelong and can’t be cured. Different people are affected to varying degrees, and with the right supports, they can become highly successful people, finding success in a range of skilled professions.
