My son is 11 and for the last past 3 years he has had problems with reading ,writing, spelling, ect. The school boards are suppose to help your child at the age of 5 here in canada. He is now 11 years of age and i tryed 2 years of private tutoring .I now have him in a wonderful program that has helped him out and to give him the proper tools that he will need later on in life.The program is to decode the english language ,so that he will learn how to read and write, and get the proper help that he needs to get through school. I have to pay for his assesment because i can not wait for the school to provide it.The waiting list is to long through the school. When the child is found out that he has dyslexia then the goverment then will be able to help out to get proper funding for tutoring ect.Also you will be able to write this off on your income there isbook called overcoming dyslexia writen by sally shaywiz,the book is very well writen and it gives a better understanding for dyslexia. I hope this helps out someone ,beauce i know the school has not helped out at all they just blame everything on behavor.
