Famous People With Dyslexia

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Dyslexia is a neurological condition that affects between 10 and 20% of the population in the UK. People who have dyslexia or dyslexia symptoms often have trouble with reading, writing and spelling. It can also affect concentration, short term memory, maths, coordination and communication skills. However, just because an individual is dyslexic does not mean that their intelligence is impaired, nor does it mean that they cannot achieve the goals or follow the career path that they have always dreamed of. There are a number of celebrities, from journalists to filmmakers and actors that have alleged dyslexic tendencies; Albert Einstein was even suspected to be affected by dyslexia.

Dore, an organisation based in Stratford upon Avon, offer a non-medicinal treatment programme for a range of learning difficulties. Whilst they do not believe in categorising those with learning difficulties, they do promote the importance of tackling it as early as possible.

A large number of other successful celebrities and famous entrepreneurs have been reported to be affected by dyslexia and Dore’s spokesperson, a well-known rugby ace completed the programme in 2006 after he was diagnosed with symptoms commonly associated with dyslexia and dyspraxia. Since then he has experienced great improvement in his reading, writing and co-ordination skills.

The programme is suitable for individuals of all ages and is designed so that it can be carried out at home. Activities take just 10 minutes to complete, twice per day. There is also an online support network, where people can access resources and other information to help them through the programme.

For further information, pricing and even a free online dyslexia test visit the Dore website. Alternatively, if you want to book a consultation for an initial assessment and to discuss the programme further with their team, give them a call on their local number.

What Free Online Dyslexia Tests Are Available

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Dyslexia is a condition which affects between 10-20% of the population; it is a neurological disorder that manifests itself as a difficulty in learning language based skills such as, reading and writing. Unfortunately, even though such a large quantity of the population is affected by dyslexia, many people go undiagnosed. Due to its symptoms, dyslexia is most commonly picked up whilst at school or nursery, but there is projected to be a large number of adults that have gone undiagnosed and never had the opportunity to seek help for their learning difficulty.

Fortunately, Dore, an organisation offering a drug free programme of physical exercise that can improve the ability to read and write, offers a free online test on their website to individuals of all ages that are concerned that they may be suffering from dyslexia. The test lasts approximately 10 minutes and is designed to determine whether the individual is showing dyslexic tendencies.

The organisation offers non-medicinal treatment for a range of learning difficulties including dyslexia, dyspraxia, Asperger’s and ADHD. They believe that nobody should suffer in silence and individuals should have access to comprehensive treatment and support that is tailored to their specific requirements.

Once the initial test has been taken, individuals can visit the centre in Stratford Upon Avon for a comprehensive assessment that will consider the severity of the condition. Then their experienced team can create a treatment programme for the individual to follow.

Dore’s treatments can be completed at home and are designed to be unobtrusive to a daily routine. Taking just ten minutes, twice per day to complete, activities include balancing on a wobble board, using bean bags and an eye chart.

If you are concerned that you could be suffering from any learning difficulty, whether dyslexia or ADHD, you are encouraged to contact a member of the Dore team on their local telephone number.

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

Tackle The Root Causes Of Dyspraxia, Dyslexia and ADHD

A major issue that affects a large number of young people during their time at school is learning difficulties, such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD and Asperger’s.

For young people, dyspraxia, dyslexia and ADHD can often be mis-diagnosed as destructiveness and poor concentration. With many of the symptoms related to learning difficulties remaining undetected, access to treatment can in some cases be rare.

Fortunately, Dore specialises in treatment programmes for a wide variety of learning difficulties. They tailor their treatments to individuals of all ages to overcome their learning difficulties by improving their ability to learn.

Dyspraxia and dyslexia do not just affect a persons reading, writing and co-ordination. It can also have a severe effect upon social skills too. Many schools have specialist tutors that work closely with those suffering from learning difficulties, making them stand out from others. Dore does not label individuals as dyslexic, dyspraxic or as suffering from ADHD. Instead their programme comprehensively treats the root causes of all learning difficulties.

Individuals can take a free online test and then contact a member of the team to arrange an appointment. From this initial appointment the team will then create a bespoke programme and provide the equipment necessary to take part.

No learning difficulty has to rule a person’s life; exercises are completed for just ten minutes, twice per day leading individuals on their way to tackling their symptoms. These exercises include throwing and catching, using an eye test board and balancing on a wobble board.

For more information regarding the programme, contact a member of this organisation’s team on their local number. Alternatively, take a look at the vast resources related to learning difficulties that can be found on their website.
