    Our testing service:

    Dyslexia Australia does not require testing to use our service.  However should you rather invest in testing rather than a solution we can provide an Education Assessment which includes a Dyslexia Screening Test for children aged 6 to 15 year old.  Please contact us to make an appointment with our Educational Consultant.  Currently, this service is only offered in Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Tamworth and Newcastle, however, our services will extend to other areas in QLD and NSW when there is sufficient interest.

Sight words

Sight words will cause a dyslexic problems because these words can not be translated into visual pictures.

For example, when we read the word “cat” we can instantly create a picture in our imagination.

Let’s try the word “ball”.
 
 

Now try “car”.
 
 

Think Of The Word Cat Think Of The Word Ball Think Of The Word Car

Now picture the meaning of the word “on”.

Now picture the meaning of the word “in”.

Now picture the meaning of the word “where”
Think Of The Word On Think Of The Word In Think Of The Word The

A dyslexic must create pictures in order to comprehend.
