LAKEPORT – A free informational seminar for parents and teachers about dyslexia will be held in Lakeport on Saturday, Nov. 7.

Licensed Davis Dyslexia Correction Facilitator David C. Rosen will host the seminar, entitled “Is It Dyslexia?” from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Mendo Lake Credit Union, 963 11th St., in the Safeway Shopping Center.

Dyslexia is probably one of the most misunderstood learning disabilities. Most people associate the word “dyslexia” with letter and word reversals. Dyslexia is not just reversals, it is a product of an individual’s thought process and their special way of reacting to confusion. It can be corrected.

If you, or someone you know is having difficulties with reading, writing, math, speaking or thinking clearly, or attention deficits, please attend this free informational seminar that will shine new light on helping correct the debilitating effects of dyslexia.

The following will be covered:

• Signs to look for – common, often overlooked, characteristics of dyslexia;

• The two facets of dyslexia – the disability and the gift;

• The root cause of dyslexia – a new perspective;

• Recognizing and controlling the mental processes that cause distorted perceptions of letters and words;

• The relationship between Attention Deficit Disorder and and dyslexia;

• Turning it around – a way to help dyslexics self-correct their dyslexia and improve their reading, writing and focus attention.
