Wyzant.com currently has the largest network of certified tutors available on the web – over 66,000 and counting- which means exclusive access to top study tips and proven practices to help students succeed in the classroom. While the majority of learning happens at school or during private tutoring sessions, there are some actions that parents can take at home to contribute to their child’s overall academic success. After reviewing hundreds of tips submitted by our network of private tutors, we found the following to be the most commonly reported: 1. Ask your kids to teach you what they learned during their lesson. “The most important feature of an engaged student is critical thinking. Critical thinking is understanding a subject in your own words, and being able to explain the subject to others,” says Wyzant language tutor Rachel M., from Evanston, IL. Pretend that you’re unfamiliar with the topic and encourage your child to play teacher! 2. Initiate positive and open communication. “Always discuss the lesson and tutoring session with your child. Find out what is going on,” says Wyzant tutor Valerie J. from Dallas, TX. The more you communicate the less you have to read between the lines to find out where and why they are struggling. In certain cases, the method of teaching can conflict with a child’s learning style, which is why Wyzant offers a good fit guarantee for each student. 3. Emphasize a healthy mind and body! “This means eating right, getting enough sleep,” says Wyzant test prep tutor John B. of Harleysville, PA. Many outside factors can affect sharpness in the classroom. While it’s impossible to control all aspects of your child’s day, a consistent bed time and balanced meals are important habits that can be established in the home.

Kids with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning disabilities are as intelligent as
others, and often have great strengths–but they learn differently.
How Do People Get Dyslexia
Research shows that individuals inherit the genetic
links for dyslexia. 2)Multisensory techniques are used to promote better retention as students are taught the phonetic codes of the language. This is much easier than having to memorize thousands of words by sight. The 42 basic sounds and the letters that represent them are taught one at a time in building block fashion. Daily drill on the sounds and plenty of word decoding practice will help them to master this foundation. To ensure success, find practice tools that will keep them engaged. Look for lessons and materials that use a good sequence: the letters of the alphabet, then the short vowel sounds---with short e taught at the end rather than between short a and short i (to avoid confusion), then the long vowel sounds...and so on. Make sure you have high interest reading material, with controlled vocabulary, that introduces the sounds in a good phonics sequence to avoid confusion. With the proper preparation, students will continually have a successful reading experience. testdyslexia.com free A Dyslexic test I have Dyslexia. What does it mean?http://dyslexia.yale.edu/dyslexia/what-is-dyslexia/ I f your Childs speech progress is slow the best advice is to start sitting with them reading at an early age .

It’s not an illness like chicken pox or a cold. In school your teachers can see you working hard, but they can’t see all the steps your brain has to take to make sense of the words on the worksheet she gave you to do. Many kids with dyslexia worry that there is something wrong with their brain. That’s a pretty scary thought. Thanks to recent research, though, we have lots of scientific proof that a dyslexic person’s brain is normal and healthy. When you have dyslexia, though, your brain takes longer to make some of these connections, and does it in more steps. It especially has trouble matching the letters you see on the page with the sounds those letters and combinations of letters make. And when you have trouble with that step, it makes all the other steps harder. Dyslexia isn’t rare. You might know other kids in your school who have dyslexia, too. Although dyslexia isn’t contagious, sometimes several people in the same family have dyslexia. Older kids and adults can also have dyslexia. A new way to learn..
In fact, you may have already figured out some strategies all by yourself that help you when you’re reading. Kids with dyslexia often learn to use other skills to help them make sense of what they’re reading or studying. You might already be especially good at:
The good news about dyslexia...
People with dyslexia are often very creative, and typically develop some clever skills to help them figure out words and sentences that give them trouble at first. Dyslexics often think of unexpected ways to solve a problem or tackle a challenge. We don’t fully understand whether this kind of creativity comes from the extra work dyslexics have to do to succeed at reading, or whether dyslexics are just naturally creative. What we do know, though, is that many, many people with dyslexia, even some who really struggled with reading and writing in elementary school and high school, went on to college, and work in jobs they love. Did you ever read any of the “Captain Underpants” books? The author of these funny stories, Dav Pilkey, has dyslexia. So does Scott Adams, who draws and writes the popular comic strip Dilbert. Many famous performers (ever hear of John Lennon or Whoopie Goldberg?) have dyslexia. So do lots of famous doctors, business people, inventors, artists, and scientists. Having dyslexia can sometimes make you feel frustrated or sad. With the right help, though, you can learn to read—and even to enjoy reading—and you can be anything you want to be.
