Robin E. Williams homeschooled her five children (four with dyslexia). She has counseled others on homeschooling for over 15 years and has worked in customer service for All About Learning Press for a decade.

So you have discovered that your child has dyslexia. You may be concerned and anxious over what this means for your child, or you may be relieved to now have a cause for all the difficulties he has been experiencing. Regardless of how you are feeling, however, you need to let your child know.

In Part 1 of A Parent’s Guide to the Neuroscience of Dyslexia, we discussed the parts of the brain responsible for language development and reading processes, how neurotypical children learn to read, and the neurological impact of dyslexia on language and reading skills. We discussed the fact that for most dyslexic learners, it’s as if their brains take the longer, more scenic mountain roads instead of the faster, more direct interstates when reading and spelling.

If you are a parent of a child who has dyslexia, you probably know how overwhelming and confusing it can be to learn about dyslexia. To complicate matters, even though dyslexia has been identified and studied for nearly 150 years,¹ there are still so many misconceptions about it that persist today, making it difficult to make an informed decision about your child’s education.
