Subject: Re: Teaching adults with dyslexia Author: Bill Madigan (Educator) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 07:07:12 10/27/12 Sat In reply to: Sue 's message, "Teaching adults with dyslexia" on 18:30:21 09/20/12 Thu Dear Sue, I believe that the cause of your difficulty lies is the fact that the condition that we refer to as dyslexia differs from person to person. That being said there are two approaches that efficiently and effectively remediate the causes of dyslexia. One is the traditional route of getting a complete psycho-educational evaluation to determine the exact phonological and cognitive causes of the condition and then building and implementing an educational therapy program based on the diagnosis. Second would be to assume that the individual has a deficit in all of the cognitive and phonological areas that impact the ability to read and providing educational therapy to treat them all. This second method can very often be more cost effective especially when done on the internet as we do at www.edugamestar.com. I hope this helps.
