Every teacher wants to do what they can to teach Dyslexic students to read. They can take certain steps to make their classroom more friendly for Dyslexic students. Try to teach key vocabulary and provide students with lists that explain those concepts. Vocabulary revision is an easy homework set to distribute in a class.
As a parent or teacher, how do you make your space dyslexia-friendly?
Teachers try to implement tasks in their class to Dyslexic students.
Primary school teachers should make it a goal to teach basic reading skills. That could help students with Dyslexia achieve certain reading levels that they have to attain. Articles of appropriate readability will be an important asset to both teachers and Dyslexic students. Monitor student progress and incorporate additional reading aids in the classroom.
The report stresses that dyslexia occurs across all intellectual abilities, and points out that dyslexia is best thought of as a continuum, with no clear cut-off points.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
