Each affected person has their own set of strengths and weaknesses in their ability to understand, interpret and communicate verbal information.<\/p>\n<p>To make diagnosis easier, the symptoms of dyslexia can be grouped according to a person&#8217;s age.<\/p>\n<h4>Pre-school children<\/h4>\n<p>Dyslexia is difficult to diagnose in children of this age, who have very different levels of learning. Features in children in this age group include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Slow speech development.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty in correct word order and a tendency to mix up letters. For example, a child may say &#8216;tevelision&#8217; instead of &#8216;television&#8217;.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty in correctly composing sentences to express themselves.<\/li>\n<li>Poor understanding of rhymes.<\/li>\n<li>Lack of interest in learning the letters of the alphabet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>School-age children<\/h4>\n<p>Symptoms of dyslexia generally become easier to recognise in school-aged children. Some features of this condition in children aged 5 to 12 years include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Difficulty in understanding the meaning of the written word.<\/li>\n<li>Poor phonological awareness, which refers to a person&#8217;s ability to understand how a word is made up of smaller sound units. This is essential for spelling and reading.<\/li>\n<li>Poor verbal memory. Verbal memory is the ability to recall information, such as a short list of items or a few instructions.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty learning sequences, such as the letters of the alphabet or the days of the week.<\/li>\n<li>Unpredictable and inconsistent spelling, with a tendency to misplace letters and numbers.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty in reading aloud.<\/li>\n<li>Visual disturbances during reading. For example, the child may signal seeing letters moving or blurring.<\/li>\n<li>Children may be able to answer questions well orally but have difficulty writing down what they have said.<\/li>\n<li>Poor writing skills and difficulties with dictation or even copying text.<\/li>\n<li>Lack of organisational skills and poor time management.<\/li>\n<li>Shy and introverted behaviour due to fear of speaking or reading incorrectly. Children may also suffer from low self-esteem and be targeted by bullies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Dyslexia in adults<\/h4>\n<p>Untreated dyslexia in adults can result in low self-esteem, anxiety, aggression, withdrawal from family, friends and once teachers. Symptoms of the disorder in adulthood may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Difficulties with reading (including reading aloud).<\/li>\n<li>Problems distinguishing left from right.<\/li>\n<li>Problems with mathematical tasks.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty understanding jokes or idioms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Wondering if you suffer from dyslexia?<\/h4>\n<p>You can use our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mind-test.org\/dyslexia-test\">online dyslexia test<\/a>.
