Dyslexia is a learning disorder characterized by difficulty reading, poor spelling and writing, and late speech development. According to the Dyslexia Center of Utah, one in five, or 15-20% of the population, has a language-based learning disability, and 70-80% of people with poor reading skills are likely dyslexic. Dyslexia can occur in children with normal intelligence and vision, and most children with Dyslexia can succeed in school with tutoring as well as specialized education programs.
