There is no known way to prevent dyslexia. But because the neurological problems that cause dyslexia may be related to prenatal factors, and children born with birth weight premature or low are at greater risk of dyslexia, it is wise to follow the usual recommendations for a healthy pregnancy .

Treatment Of Dyslexia
There is no known way to solve the base of the brain malfunction that causes dyslexia. Dyslexia treatment, recovery education, and before the operation begins, the better it is usually for your child. Psychological tests will help teachers to develop the child an adequate education program of recovery.
Multi-sensory approach
Teachers can use the techniques of hearing, vision and touch to improve reading skills. Help a child learn multiple meanings - for example listening to a taped lesson and tracing with a finger through the letters and words - can help him process the information.
Expertise focuses on five key areas necessary for the effective treatment of:
Phonemic awareness - the sounds are the smallest speech sounds
Phonic recognition
Oral reading ability
Vocabulary building
Reading Comprehension
You can help your child learn to read to him often, and help your child pronounce letters and spell words. If your child learns best by listening to new information first, listen to books on tape with him or her, and then read the same story in written form together.
If your child has severe reading disability, tutoring may have to occur more frequently, and progress can be slow. A child with severe dyslexia may not be able to read and it is possible that the formation of vocations that do not require high reading skills. However, with determination, children and adults with dyslexia can learn to do many things, and a number of celebrities have succeeded despite their dyslexia. Children with milder forms of dyslexia often eventually learn to read well enough to succeed in school.

Symptoms Of Dyslexia
The symptoms of dyslexia can be difficult to recognize your child enters school, but some early clues may indicate a problem. Once your child reaches school age, your child's teacher can be the first to notice a problem.
Before school
Signs and symptoms that the child may be at risk of dyslexia are:
A late talking
The addition of new words slowly
Difficulty rhyming
School age
Once your child is in school, the symptoms of dyslexia can be more obvious, namely:
Reading at a level well below the level expected for the age of your child
Processing problems and understand what they mean
Difficulty understanding instructions faster
Problems following more than one command at a time
Problems with remembering the order of things
Difficult to see (and hear some) similarities and differences between letters and words
An inability to fathom the pronunciation of an unknown word
See letters or words in the opposite direction (B and D and see that) - though to see words or letters backwards is common for children under 8 years who have dyslexia, children with dyslexia continue to see after this age
Difficulty spelling
Difficulty learning a foreign language
When to seek medical advice
Dyslexia is characterized by a delay in the age when your child begins to read. Most children are ready to learn to read in kindergarten or first grade, but children with dyslexia are often unable to understand the basics of reading at the time. Talk to your doctor if your child's level of literacy level falls below what is expected for his age or if you notice any signs or symptoms of dyslexia.

Causes Of Dyslexia
Learning disability is a condition that produces a gap between a person and his ability to provide. Most people with dyslexia have average or above average intelligence, but read the significantly lower level than expected. Other types of learning disabilities have attention problems, inability to perform a write and the inability to do well in math skills.

Dyslexia Overview
 |
Dyslexia usually occurs in children with normal vision and normal intelligence. Dyslexic children typically have normal speech, but can be difficult to interpret the spoken and written language.
Dyslexic children need tutoring, and treatment of dyslexia often involves a program of multi-sensory education. Emotional support your child in turn plays an important role.
