WIDE RANGE OF DYSLEXIA CATEGORIES AND THEIR SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

We offer support for various types of dyslexia. Identifying the signs and symptoms of each category early is crucial for effective intervention. Dyslexic children are often mistakenly perceived as “careless” or “inattentive.” Below is a list of dyslexia categories—do keep an eye out for these signs if you suspect your child may be dyslexic. Early identification is vital, as it can help prevent further learning difficulties in the future.

1) Developmental Dyslexia

 Comprises two subtypes:

  • Primary Dyslexia: Caused by genetic and hereditary factors.

  • Secondary Dyslexia: Results from brain development issues during early pregnancy.

2) Acquired / Trauma Dyslexia

Caused by brain injury or emotional trauma.

3) Surface Dyslexia

Characterized by difficulty recognizing words by sight. Symptoms include:

  •  Slow reading rate

  • Difficulty with word recognition, limiting vocabulary

  • Spelling challenges

  • Trouble reading words that don’t sound the way they are spelled

  • Letter reversals (e.g., p–b, d–q, E–3, 6–9)

  • Word or sound reversals (e.g., dog–god, form–from)

  • Difficulty retaining learned letters or words

4) Visual Dyslexia

Involves difficulty with visual processing of text. The brain struggles to interpret the full picture seen by the eyes. Children with this type of dyslexia often find reading challenging. Symptoms include:

  •  Difficulty tracking text

  • Text appears blurry or seems to move across the page

  • Headaches and eyestrain, affecting attention

  • Missing punctuation and capitalization within sentences

  • Preference for pictures over text

  • Poor reading comprehension

5) Rapid Naming Dyslexia

Difficulty pronouncing and reading numbers, colors, and letters, even though the child knows what they are. They take longer to recall the correct word. Symptoms include:

  • Slow response to words

  • Omitting or substituting words

  • Slower processing speed

  • Confusion with directions

6) Phonological Dyslexia

Involves difficulty with phonetic sounds and breaking words into syllables. This is the most common type of dyslexia. Symptoms include:

  • Spelling issues

  • Trouble with phonetic sounds

  • Struggles in learning and remembering new words

  • Difficulty recognizing familiar words

  • Slow reading

  • Avoidance of reading activities

  • Difficulty retaining auditory information, leading to a short attention span

Our experts are skilled in recognizing these symptoms and providing appropriate intervention programs tailored to each child's needs.
