He should be able to read once he finishes all the lessons in my blog.<br />Kind regardsLuqman Michelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089314934834818707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929940323242620649.post-29449614067906883142010-09-08T19:17:28.278+08:002010-09-08T19:17:28.278+08:00having just discovered my 8 years old has dyslexia...having just discovered my 8 years old has dyslexia, i was interested in what you had to say about the english language.I from experience agree. children are taught phonics to make reading simpler, this has at times confused my son. e.g the magic "e" turns a in to A. this rule is not consistant and does confuse him. there are many more as you know. unfortunatly his school does not know how to teach children with dyslexia as the most advise ive had,apart from teaching him touch typing, is to write his homework for him so as not to put him under pressure! he has been doing his own work for 3 years and im not going to let that happen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929940323242620649.post-82681468375728364272010-09-05T05:01:27.145+08:002010-09-05T05:01:27.145+08:00Thank you for your very encouraging comment.

The more than 100 years old definition that dyslexics have a phonological awareness deficit should be changed. <br /><br />I am in the process of writing my next article which is on dyslexics and spelling which I hope will be read with an open mind as well.Luqman Michelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089314934834818707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929940323242620649.post-47726753326289695592010-09-04T22:38:13.266+08:002010-09-04T22:38:13.266+08:00Yes I made typos, I was furious with the arrogance...Yes I made typos, I was furious with the arrogance dealt to a colleague! <br /><br />Mia culpa!<br /><br />ValrieValriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17246143695933400624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929940323242620649.post-76947829664330689442010-09-04T22:36:55.953+08:002010-09-04T22:36:55.953+08:00Michel,

It breaks the rules ALL the time and does not transfer logically into other languages. Students who read and speak fluent Malay, Chinese, Japanese and other romance languages will be quick to affirm your research as am I!<br /><br />They perhaps FEAR they are wrong and unable to admit it to themselves!<br /><br />Keep on doing what you are doing, and to you self doubters and doubters of Michel's research my advice to you is:<br /><br />Your mind is like a parachute, it works best when it is open!<br /><br />As educators and researchers EXAMINE before you analyze and draw conclusions!<br /><br />Valrie<br />The Reading Doctor!<br />MSE Kappa Delta Pi<br />EdD in progress!<br />Professor at MVCC<br />email readingdoctorconnections@yahoo.comValriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17246143695933400624noreply@blogger.com
