I would suggest that you speak to staff in your institution's learning centre about what assistance they offer. If they don't, you may be in the wrong school (college/university). Secondly you should have a psychoeducational assessment done, by a recognized professional psychologist specializing in assessing people with dyslexia. I have dyslexia in a mild form while my son is coping with a significantly worse form in university, not being aware of his disablity until grade 12. This is in the context of a Canadian environment. The above mentioned test cost about $1,200 Cdn., and is covered by some of the health benefit programs.
