Dyslexia manifests itself as difficulties in listening, understanding, thinking, expressing oneself, writing and reading in children with normal or above normal intelligence. It is the most common learning disability. Briefly, dyslexia is the inability of the individual to learn adequately according to the level of education given according to his age and intelligence, even though his intelligence is normal or above normal. While it is noticed by everyone that they are very smart, their families and teachers wonder how these children read slowly and incorrectly, why they write badly even though they are taught, why they do not want to do homework even though they are interested and skillful in certain subjects, why they cannot collect themselves and focus on studying, and how they cannot reflect this on the exam paper even though they have the necessary knowledge.
As a result of scientific studies conducted for more than 100 years, it has been revealed that dyslexia does not occur due to a single cause and that various genetic and environmental factors play a role. Since dyslexia is a congenital structural condition, it shows its symptoms from the first years of life. There is a possibility of dyslexia in children who, despite their healthy development, speak later than their peers and mispronounce words while speaking.
Another area that can be noticed at an early age in dyslexia is the area of movement and coordination. Difficulty in going up and down the stairs unaided without holding on, not being able to dress and undress on one's own, not being able to zip up or button up, difficulty in using scissors, pencils, forks, spoons or not being able to hold them properly, etc. These conditions are problems caused by dyslexia in the field of movement and coordination. And it is imperative that people who encounter this situation seek help from experts and seek solutions without wasting time.
