Overview

Dyslexia

Dyslexia is a common learning difficulty that mainly causes reading, writing, and spelling problems. Now, imagine you deal with children with dyslexia as a teacher, childcare worker, or parent; but you don’t have any knowledge of dyslexia. It would be difficult for you to support that child in this regard. So, to ease your problem, we have developed this Dyslexia course.
