Dyslexia is a specific learning difficulty that primarily affects children's reading, writing, and spelling skills. It impacts how the brain processes language but doesn't affect intelligence. This blog will explore dyslexia, its indicators, causes, and what makes it a learning difficulty. We will also discuss an effective solution to help children with this learning difference attain literacy.
Dyslexia is a unique learning difference that manifests in various ways, particularly regarding cognitive processing and memory. This blog will address the common question — can dyslexia affect memory? We will also examine some common myths to enhance your understanding of this learning difference. Let’s begin with understanding the basics of memory.
Dyslexia is a complex set of processing differences that primarily affect students' reading and spelling skills, making aspects of learning difficult.
Dyslexia is a condition often associated with difficulties in reading and writing. However, recent studies have shed some more light on how often students with dyslexia also experience speech difficulties. In this blog post, we will explore the intricate relationship between dyslexia and speech, answering the question of ‘can dyslexia affect speech?’ and how using specialised therapy with music for dyslexia can help.
Last year I was really privileged to earn a place at the British Kodaly Academy summer school as a Cecelia Vajda scholarship student.
Dyslexia has long been a subject of extensive research and debate among educators, psychologists and healthcare professionals. Recently, SASC’s research has brought forward a refined definition of dyslexia, which provides a clearer understanding of this learning difference. Here at Music Dyslexia, we recognise the significance of this updated definition and its implications for the diagnosis and receiving the right support for individuals with dyslexia. That is why, in this blog, we will delve into the new definition of dyslexia, explore its nature, causes, signs and traits, diagnostic procedures and possible support therapies to help those with this condition.
I am very excited to announce that I will be at the British Dyslexia Association's International Conference in June 2024. I'll be doing a poster presentation all about my research into music and dyslexia.
We have been researching music and dyslexia for several years. Our research focuses on the known cognitive and behavioural benefits of music, in relation to identification of dyslexia.
