Did you know that EVERY student that comes to The Tutoring Center is screened for Dyslexia and/or other hidden learning struggles??

The following was shared on The Dyslexia Classroom Facebook page.
"This image is a powerful reminder that what you see isn't the whole picture. This is especially true for our students with dyslexia.
"But they are doing so well!"
...[older students] have developed amazing coping skills, are getting good grades, and are considered on grade level...but these successes don't tell the whole story.
While their struggle may not always be visible to us, students with dyslexia often:

• feel insecure in their reading and writing abilities
• feel anxious when asked to read in front of peers
• spend more time completing homework assignments than their peers (what may be considered a 30-minute assignment takes them 1.5 hours to complete)
• are at higher risk for suicide
• don't want to ask for the accommodations they need because they are embarrassed or feel singled out
• have anxiety
• keep it together during the school day and fall apart at home

Children with dyslexia need us to have a deeper understanding of dyslexia and how it impacts their learning AND their social-emotional development."
