Do you know someone that has dyslexia? Can you imagine just how hard it must be to live with dyslexia? Dyslexia is a general term for disorders that make learning to read or interpret written language like words, letters and other symbols more difficult. However, it does not affect the overall intelligence of the child or adult that has dyslexia.
Imagine how hard life is with dyslexia.
For someone that has dyslexia, homework or even learning can be a traumatic experience. This is often met with anxiety in the child and sometimes fear of the learning experience. Children tend to get frustrated and avoid the situation at all costs. When helping people to learn who have dyslexia it is important to focus on their strengths.
The groundwork was done through the support of the association, teaching them strategies and tactics to learn how to read. We learned that writing subjects are the best way to learn something because your brain retains it better.

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.
