Grounded In Science - Driven By Minds

We empower students with dyslexia to reach their potential through evidence-based, systematic instruction. We give parents confidence that their child will gain lifelong literacy skills, a love for learning and self-advocacy.
Dyslexify M.I.N.D.S. exists because reading struggles shouldn’t limit a child’s future. Many bright, creative kids are misunderstood by traditional classrooms.
Our goal: Shift “I CAN’T” to “I LEARN DIFFERENTLY.” We adapt the program to each child—uncovering the strengths dyslexia often hides—while supporting academic growth and emotional well-being.

Characteristics of Dyslexia:

Phonological Awareness: Difficulty segmenting, blending, and manipulating sounds in words (phonemic awareness).
Word Decoding: Inability to accurately decode unfamiliar words or recognize words in isolation.
Reading Fluency: Slow, inaccurate, or labored oral reading lacking prosody.
Spelling: Persistent spelling errors, often phonetic, or difficulty with word-specific spelling patterns.

Reading Comprehension: Often impaired due to high cognitive effort spent on decoding.
Written Expression: Challenges with producing written work, including handwriting and organization.
Memory and Processing: Difficulties with phonological memory (holding sound information) and rapid naming (quickly naming colors, objects, or letters).

Unexpectedness: Difficulties are unexpected compared to the student's age, intelligence, and educational opportunity.
Family History: Often, there is a familial history of similar reading/spelling difficulties.
Age Variance: Characteristics may appear as letter-sound confusion in young children, transitioning to fluency and comprehension issues in older students.

15-20% of the general population has a language-based learning disability.
70-80% of the students with specific learning disabilities receiving special education services have deficits in reading.
Dyslexia is the most common cause of reading, writing and spelling difficulties.
