Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I go for help if my child has dyslexia?
First, you should perform a self-screening test. If the test indicates that your child probably has dyslexia, you can take your results and/or your child’s medical and school records to a physician. They will then refer you to a psychiatrist specializing in specific learning difficulties and carry out more tests to confirm a diagnosis. See the section on 'dyslexia in children' for more information.
