Symptoms and Signs of Dyslexia (Ages 1-7)

- These symptoms and signs of dyslexia will help you identify whether your child has dyslexia or not. Unrecognized dyslexia can be a real problem and even lead to trauma. So have a look at all of these signs and symptoms! As soon as a child is diagnosed, it is possible to get the right kind of help, and your child will also get access to accommodations like, for example, extra time, audiobooks, and more. Do not fall into the trap of thinking "he will catch up" or "let's wait a little longer and if it does not go away, let's get a dyslexia diagnosis". If it is dyslexia, it will not go away, and without professional help, your child will likely not catch up. You, as a parent, can prevent a lot of the embarrassing situations and mistreatment that dyslexics encounter simply because their dyslexia goes undiagnosed. Dyslexia is a challenge, but that does not mean that your child can't be vastly successful in what they do. The first step, is simply to identify.

🙋🏼♂️ My name is Arije, and I am a dyslexic with an MA in Education Studies. I aim to share all my tips for learning, coping, teaching, and more on my channel. My aim is to help you understand what dyslexia is and how to work with those that have it. Because I believe that, as the most common hidden learning disability, dyslexia needs to be seen to be understood.

Problem for me, I learned a lot about these learning differences late in life. My daughter is dyslexic I didn't know what it was I just took her out of the public school system enrolled her into a private school. She has obvious and writing, verbal linguistic issues. But she wasn't beaten down like I was in the Neurotypical school educational system. She runs her own business married as a child does quite well for herself and she has an opinion and not afraid to express it.
My son (now 25) has very profound dyslexia. I noticed several things he struggled with as a preschooler. His spoken language was not delayed but there were some odd issues. He could not remember color names. He’d ask for the crayon “the color of grass” but could not say “green.” This persisted well into elementary. Have you ever encountered that? Our state, at that time, did not recognize dyslexia as an ‘eligible disability’ meaning the schools did not have to address it and we could not even use the term in his IEP meetings. We continued to fight the same battles with every new school and every new teacher through high school. The PTSD is very real. Teachers and peers can say things that cut so indelibly. He has forged a very successful career as a scenic artist (without college!) but still struggles with self confidence. Thanks for your videos. It is interesting to hear you discuss what we lived for so many years.

Can I ask you something. I have a student he is in second grade he knows the letters but still have alot of hard time reading for example he spell was as were and even though I always correct him he always forget when he see the word again. This happens in many words not just this. Also when there is a new word I tell him to read each letter then spell it still he can't spell it it is like he can't pronounce it. But he knows how to write and form a sentence In English orally (English is his second language) he have it worse in the first language. Is it possible he have dyslixa. I had students who were weak in their language but not like this. It is obvious there is something wrong but I am not sure what is the problem with him. As someone who dealt with dyslexia do you think he is dyslexic or am I overthinking it or is it something else.
my daughter have no difficulties in reading , however she is struggling alot on arranging a long sentences. i remember i kinda have the same problem when i was a kids and i found out that im dyslexic too.
My 6 year old is struggling with her phonics her teacher said she is showing signs of dixlexia lots of b and d mixed up just small signs. But what struck me the most was the shame part, she has completely withdrawn from reading writing & anything school related she has even told her teacher she hates her & she never acts out like this but i can now see the pressure she is under not doing as well as the others! its constantly being pointed out in front of the other children when the teacher pulls us aside in front of her friends in the playground. Now I feel just awful for her she is so intelligent so imaginative great story teller huge personality, Thankyou for this insight I will be handling it so much differently than before
What an excellent video outlining Dyslexia. This hit home so hard for our situation - thank you Arije-Aike for making this wonderful resource.
Your video is extremely informative and well made. As a fellow specialist educator I congratulate you. As you have encouraged people to share this on their social media I will do exactly that as I can’t do it better myself.
Love how you filmed yourself moving outside 😂 awesome vids 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️ ty so

I wish my dyslexia had been diagnosed much earlier than it was.
I wasn't diagnosed until I was 18yrs old. I struggled throughout school. Granted, my dyslexia was fairly mild but it affected how I learned and socialized. I struggled with language skills early on. I had delayed speach. Which, at the time, was brushed off as "she's a second child, she'll pick up language when she's ready"
This was partly true, I did pick up spoken language eventually, but not until I was about two. I also had trouble with identifying colors. My eye sight was checked for colorblindness, which I didn't have so my parents were completely frustrated.
My mother being a writer, an editor, and an educator took my delay in language skills as a personal attack, rather than something in me that needed to be addressed. She, like many of my teachers, chalked my delays up to being "lazy" or "not applying" myself. I would spend HOURS crying over school textbooks and any reading assignments. I managed to find ways around having to read by talking to my friends, taking mental notes on what they would say about assignments.
By the time I graduated high school (yes, I actually managed to graduate) I actually only had a fifth grade reading level.
The astonishing thing was that I attended college.
I actually remember going in for my English assessment test and that is where it was discovered that I was infact dyslexic.
Once my mother realized that my delay in reading and writing wasn't a result of my being lazy or not applying myself, she put forth a great deal of effort to help "retrain" how I learned to read.
We tried several methods but eventually landed on one that seemed to really do the most good for me.
I won't recommend anything as my mom wasn't trained or lisenced in any form of laguage therapy. But, at least we managed to get me to a point where I no longer shy away from reading or writing and I have found pleasure in reading.
I value this information. I have never been diagnosed with dyslexia. Though my parents were instructed to give me similar treatment as someone with dyslexia. My family has a history of struggling with language (speaking, reading and writing) and had to work extra hard to be a similar level of the standard. Now I have an understanding what to look out for in my child. Thanks.

Love this video. If i had this video 9 years ago, it would have been so easy…
Thanks a MILLION!! I now feel more equipped to have a conversation with my 5year olds kindergarten teacher.
I'm glad to help out :)
I am so thankful my youngest had an early intervention to help him with his delayed speech and langauge for preschool. Signs of speech delay was noticable around 1yr, then again at 15 and 16 months, then it became more clear at 18 months where testing first began. By age 2 we began trying different things to encourage him to speak, not just whine or point to things he wanted.
His hearing was a concern but I knew it was fine. The proof when they believed me that his hearing was just fine happened when I opened something in the kitchen that had a specific sound and he know just what that sound was and would come running down the hallway from his bedroom. 😄
In Kindergarten into 2nd grade, he was in what is called the Pinoccio program, to help his speech, language and social skills (still struggled with noticable anxiety issues that created shut downs).
We thought he might need back in Pinoccio for social again this school year but seeing how he did it for K-2nd, I wanted to try something different, and it's working oddly enough.
One day, well more like for over a week, he did not want to do anymore cursive handwritting in class, or for homework. His teacher extended the due date for that 1 piece of paper he needed to do. The day came where it was due and he had a shut down in class and wouldn't speak, keeping his head down. She was at the point she didn't know what to try and contacted me right away. I said how I didn't have any luck at home but I had a new idea that was given to me by my step mother. That idea worked. I said try telling him of famous people he might like who also had to do cursive as an adult. He likes Abraham Lincoln and hearing that he had to write in cursive perked him up apparently. And now I don't hear him complain anymore, lol.
Hearing how now famous people had learning struggles seems to help those who are currently struggling, to have someone they can relate to and know things worked out and that gives them hope and a bit of motivation to keep trying at their own pace.
However, I still can't find anyone that I can talk to who also struggles with the math dyslexia issue. I never got diagnosed in school but even in 12th grade they still knew something was wrong, but blamed it on my ADD. I struggled with math from the very start when learning my numbers. I remember trying to match numbers 1-9 as a toddler.... yea I have very early memories, including still in diaper memories, and my potty training began just after 2 like most kids and I did very well, compared to..... well girls just do better at it.
Why it's important is because once in school they get lost and they lose self esteem. They become defiant when it's time to learn. They feel left out and isolated from their peers which leads to depression.
Sorry for the late response.
I think you're right mental health is one of the important aspects of why it's important. Here's a video that I made about that. th-cam.com/video/t5T_OsnqAUM/w-d-xo.html
And this also addresses some of the questions you might have:

Your videos are extremely helpful. Just found out I have dyslexia along with other learning difficulties. Wishing that I knew sooner so I could've tried harder at finding a better way of learning. School was a nightmare. Hoping your videos will help others out and have better experience at school and learning.

I also wish I would have been diagnosed with dyslexia and adhd throughout my foundational education years. I would have probably gotten more accommodations and experienced far less emotion distress and anxiety. Knowing I expedited issues in writing and speech as well as reading for my classes up until college.
I agree I always had Learning Disability but I wasn’t never properly diagnosed and also didn’t get the support I need .I like Community College but I need to ask for accommodations but we are shy to see if it will work .
My son is 10 , today when l discussed with a friend about his learning in school, she told me he could be “ dyslexia “ this is the first time l heard this word in my life , then l started to look into it , the more l learn the more l feel he might be the case . As he is definitely smart boy showing a lot ability and skill in some area, but not interested in school learning and hard to concentrate
Just found out my 3rd grader is dyslexic. Sadly she was in kindergarten during Covid and 1st grade so I think a lot of the issues were missed. In 2nd grade the teachers were still trying to catch up on teaching kids social issues. Now she’s in 3rd grade and her teacher is like uh oh there is an issue. Oddly tho, all her state testing the school uses for reading and math is well above average. She consistently scores in 80th or higher percentile. During her dyslexia testing with neuropsych, she scored well above average in problem solving skills which I think has helped her keep her dyslexia under wraps for so long. Some things I did notice as a preschooler-2nd grade was writing letters and numbers backwards. She still does it to a degree but is able to catch herself more now. She also would repeat numbers backwards when reading them. 63 would be read back as 36. This is something she still struggles with. She had a hard time decoding words, spelling words and her handwriting is absolutely horrid. A lot of this was dismissed early on as “age appropriate”. I knew in my heart something was off but it wasn’t extreme enough to warrant major concerns since she was still young. She did receive speech services starting at 3-8 years old for articulation. She would talk a lot as a toddler but you couldn’t understand a word she was saying. I’m so thankful her 3rd grade teacher identified the issue. My daughter also has been diagnosed as adhd inactive type.
Really grateful for this having been shared. I homeschool and have had a suspicion my youngest son is dyslexic recently but had no way of knowing for sure. Now I have a concrete enough idea of the signs that I am going to have him tested so he can receive supports.
I also took the test you posted that is used to test for it. I definitely scored a 6/9, though I have always been far ahead in my reading skills, having read my first book at age 3.
I do have to reread things often to grasp and remember details in material I read, as well as often seeing words in a sentence that aren't actually there but the letters, that make up the word are within the paragraph I am reading. I find this fascinating and am curious as to why this did not manifest as a struggle for me in most ways.
Hi. Very helpful video. Can you please make some videos on tips and method of teaching kids in primary level with dyslexia?
Yes, that is definitely on my list. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂

My mom is dyslexic and so I am. I found out in 4th grade. I have mild dyslexia, I didn't have too much trouble learning to read it was my eyes drop from one line to the next so I would read the beginning of one sentence and then the end of another so it didn't make sense and I didn't understand. I did have some issues with B and D in their lowercase form since they look the same just flipped. I had some other issues as well but it didn't seem too bad, what was bad was not knowing how I learned. Just being put in a class where you're expected to learn just like everyone else was the hard part. I learn by watching and copying what I see more than reading about something or hearing instructions. I also could have used a tutor but that wasn't offered to me. I did better in college than elementary and high school but by then I knew how I learned. I'm scared for my son. He's 2 and everyone told me, don't worry he's a covid baby, boys speak later than girls. He babbled quite early on but then didn't really say many words consistently so by a year and a half I took him to speech therapy. That and I had surgery around the same time he went to day care so he's been hearing other voices and is learning a lot. He's speaking better now but I'm still worried. I don't want him to go through the difficult time I had, my teacher saw the signs early on in 4th grade but didn't say anything until the end of the year and I had to repeat the grade. my mom was angry and put me in a different school and I was bullied a lot. I don't want him to have to deal with that at all.
My lil brother showed all these symptoms since very small, so we made sure he would always be supported in every aspect. He wants to become an architect and I'm sure he will accomplish great things. Do you have any tips for neurodivergent/dyslexic young adults starting their careers and work life?
Beautiful Nature!

My mum suspected that I had dyslexia, but the school denied it. First time she tried it, as she has mentioned to me, was when I was in third grade. My dad is quite possibly dyslectic, without having a diagnosis. I went through school hearing the teachers praise me for my reading, while I felt quite dumb. I even had to fight for a test in upper secondary, but that was also where I got the diagnosis. After that I could start working on methods to learn. I can`t recall, and mum has never told me, if I had any delays in my development, but I do recall a few words I felt were difficult in the first years of school. I never went to kindergarten.
Sad part about the school system is teachers aren’t trained to teach children with different learning disorders. It’s a generalized method and that’s it
Todah for this... such a breathe of fresh air and hope
You are welcome. Glad you like it 😊
@@ArijeAikedeHaas shalom, is it hard to learn Hebrew as dyslexic? 😊
@@aineangeles2648 Hey Aine, well, it is my first Semitic language, which makes it a little more difficult. I am actually doing an intensive language course right now, and it has been a lot of fun. Best language learning experience I have ever had. I thought about making a video about that experience. And yes, as a dyslexic, it is more difficult in some ways, but that's ok.
@@ArijeAikedeHaas thanks for this, I was only diagnosed at 22
@@aineangeles2648 You are definitely not alone; many dyslexics find out that they are dyslexic long after they leave school.
My son is 7 and he has some of the signs you've mentioned,but his comprehension is excellent. I am a bit confused if it's dyslexia or ADHD? Still in the process of getting diagnosis but only for ADHD and not dyslexia.
My daughter has both. I’ve been fighting with our school district to get her the help she requires.
I knew my son had dyslexia before he started school, I would love a video on early interventions, we use boxes font, multi sensory (writing in salt, play doh to form the letters, playing games running to the words)
He’s now 8 I have asked school for a laptop and for him to speak out what he wants to write, is this the right direction? Also having the book read to him and more working on comprehension rather than reading it.
I have dyslexia so my reading up how to help is hard work, I often cry at his parents evening because I don’t want history repeating itself
Thank you auto correct on my ipad you can read his 🤩 diagnosed at 16 with dyslexia and dyscalculia
This really resonates with me and you're not alone in this. Let me look up some things and get back to you.
Getting back to you on this: I don't know where you live, but parents tend to work with learning therapists in Germany, and there they receive specific training to improve their phonemic awareness. Which, to my knowledge, is the essential area where your son would need help. Ideally, the learning therapists would stay in contact with your son's teachers and, of course, with you. That would be a holistic approach which is what I would recommend.
As a parent, I would also keep an eye on the material that teachers give to my child. If there is a big disconnect between the teacher's expectations and your child's level, then he is essentially being set up for failure. That is, of course, something that you would want to avoid. For teachers, it can be difficult to strike a balance since they have responsibilities towards the individual in a class and to the class as a whole.
Mindfulness and autogenic training can help to cope with the emotional side of things. Also, Reframing and Mirroring are two strategies that you could use to help your child.
I would also try to find areas where he can excel. Maybe some kind of sports or another activity. If the school becomes too central, he would have no choice then to identify himself through school. By having other activities planned, you can protect his self-esteem to a certain extent.
@@ArijeAikedeHaas I’m from U.K. 🇬🇧
He loves science, and Lego.. and he’s doing acting as a after school thing.
He’s been lucky in that teachers he’s had have know about dyslexia and given me some techniques to use. He has a new one for January and a meeting with the learning department, I’ve asked for a laptop and more help for him so we’ll see.
He gets a lot of headaches at school and wonder if this is a dyslexic thing from having to concentrate.. I didn’t like working with bright lights when I was at school. My phones on the lowest brightness.
Look forward to more videos 😁 thank you for reply.

I was diagnosed with dyslexia in 2nd grade, but many go undiagnosed into adulthood. Do these signs align with your child's behavior? And if they've already been diagnosed, how and when did you identify it?
My son was diagnosed at 7 years of age. I had an incline from when he was 4. Now he is 17, and planning on going to a University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands. He would like to study Business or Media and Communications. Do you have any suggestions which unis would be best suited for Dyslexics? Thanks!
Thanks for the video Arije. We recently got my 5 year old evaluated. They identified a learning difficulty, hyperactivity and SPD but refused to put an official diagnosis to it. They say it's too early to diagnose. I've known something was different since my daughter was very young but got ignored as she is intelligent and creative.
I've pulled her out of school temporarily as she was getting frustrated. We live in India and the teaching resources we have aren't very great especially after the pandemic.
These signs perfectly align with my child and of her father as well. I'm quite sure it's dyslexia and adhd.
@@daughter_of_the_king It sounds like it may well be dyslexia and it's great that you take notice so early. Learning interventions based on phonemic awareness are generally effective for young dyslexics. Often educators don't really focus on that method, but learn therapists do. So maybe that would be an option for you to look into and help your daughter progress.
@@linda.said67 Hi Linda, I don't really know enough about the universities in holland to give you specific suggestions. But you should be able to find info on the option of getting accommodations at specific unis online. And I would talk to people who actually attend where he'd like to go and already study what he'd like to study. Often it helps to solidify the decision for those seeking to study, for example, business or communications. What I did like about my university in Germany was the flexibility it offered. For example, I was able to have oral exams instead of written ones, and I even completed one module via edited video format. I would check if any dutch unis would be open to something more flexible for dyslexics.

Early childhood learning to read have you ever heard of a child refer to the words as dancing words?
I don't know if I'm dyslexic, I am a teen. I have a hard time writing the correct words, and I have a hard time keeping track of numbers when counting like if I learn division, I forget how to do that so I end up starting from the beginning.
And also I have a hard time reading I end up mixing up words or just skips over it.
So am I dyslexic?
I. Dont understand how so many people share their experiences of their struggles with dyslexia because they have written in to this site and to me most of the time it is quite well written . I believe them but it just makes it hard for me to understand exactly what dyslexia is. Maybe someone can relate to my confusion.🤔

Never had a problem with any writing!!! But her MATH!! And following directions, stability on level ground, processing emotions, and understanding was not right and STILL isn’t!!! We were having a conversation the other day and SHE TOLD ME “ITS HARD TO READ CAUSE THE WORLD LIKE COME TO LIFE ON THE PAGE AND KEEP WIGGLING AROUND!!! THATS WHY IT TAKES HER SO LONG TO FINISH HER READING BOOKS(History ect….)!” I was like WHAAAAAAT!!!!! 😨😰🤯😳😱😩🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME THIS YEARS AGO!!!!! My son had similar issues but not with writing or numbers but with reading he would just protest… but when he worked on it he read fine! He is 15!!! No other symptoms besides listening skills, and understanding things! He says the words get super blurry!!! 🥺😪 but never said anything previously!!!!
I was looking out for these classic symptoms you described here in this video!!! My mother had it her sister and her sister’s grandson!!! I even asked my pediatrician several times!!!! 😡🤦♀️🤷♀️
