1 Dyslexia lesson

Amanda helped me to have a better understanding of dyslexia; the different types and how to assess a student who may have dyslexia. We discussed the strategies to use in order to make the student's learning experience a positive one. She also shared how to use the student's other senses to make reading easier for students with dyslexia.

121 Dyslexia lessons

We are seeing Sheryl for specific dyslexia tutoring using the Barton Method. Sheryl has obtained a significant amount training in dyslexia specific reading intervention (that will also work well for other children who have difficulty reading).This type of tutoring is rare to find in our area (Central/Southern IL). Sheryl interacts very well with my 8 year old son who does have some issues with focus. He seems to respond to her methods well. She makes the lesson fun and interactive.
Demi D.

53 Dyslexia lessons

She has broad experience with the challenges that dyslexia presents which is apparent in her comprehension of the challenge. My daughter feels Lucia has unique compassion and understanding for dyslexics, without being dyslexic herself. It can be very difficult for a person to grasp the world of dyslexia and its nuances — Lucia strives to get to a place of understanding her student’s difficulties and in the process is very affirming. Affirmation goes a long way to bolstering up their confidence.

About dyslexia

On Wyzant, learners can find personalized tutoring to better understand dyslexia, a common neurobiological learning disorder that impacts reading, writing, and spelling. Dyslexia makes it difficult to connect sounds with letters through phonological processing, but it does not affect overall intelligence. These challenges can be addressed through structured literacy instruction that teaches natural language patterns in a systematic way. Wyzant offers access to experienced tutors who create targeted, effective learning plans to help individuals of all ages improve literacy skills.

Dyslexia is characterized by difficulty in reading fluency, word recognition, and spelling, stemming from cognitive differences that affect the way the brain processes language. Though there’s no cure, specialized education can make a significant difference. Typically running in families, dyslexia affects many learners but with the right support-such as phonemic awareness, decoding strategies, and reading comprehension techniques-students can make substantial progress. Recognizing the neurobiological basis of dyslexia helps create tailored learning approaches that emphasize slow, deliberate practice and reinforcement.

Wyzant connects students with expert tutors who can support decoding, fluency, and comprehension skills through personalized lessons. Learners can choose sessions that fit their schedules, set realistic goals, and gain confidence in reading and writing. By working with an instructor dedicated to structured literacy principles, students develop time-tested strategies that improve reading efficiency and academic success. With affordable, flexible online or in-person tutoring, Wyzant provides the guidance and resources making learning accessible and achievable for everyone.
