Opis

This text explains why a dsylexic person often underachieves and shows that if the underlying problems are identified, adjustments in teaching and learning methods can make all the difference. Specialist teachers and parents, who often feel frustrated in their attempts to translate educational psychologists' suggestions into action, should discover practical ways to help with school work. Examples are taken from the curriculum and used to show how to plan an essay, learn vocabulary and read to remember, so that the student can use the method to succeed in the short term through good marks and in the long term by generalizing from their own success.
