I have two children both dyslexic and we struggled initially with school work, organisation, coordination, and class work like copying work from the board to paper. My son was 8 when he was diagnosed, i got no help at school for him. In my plight i came across the dore programme that worked wonders for his coordination and confidence and now at 15 he is doing very well overal. My daughter is showing similar progress.
of course parents patience and positive support is most vital.
