Ep. 5 Common College Accommodations for Dyslexia
02/15/23 • 13 min
Dyslexia comes with its own set of issues and needs. Although it may share some characteristics with other learning disabilities, students with Dyslexia often have specific needs. Those needs get even more significant due to the high prevalence of other disabilities coexisting with Dyslexia. Some research suggests that comorbidity is up to 50%. It may seem complicated to figure out what can work, but it’s not. In this episode, I break down the most common accommodations for Dyslexia.
