Excited to share our new paper, where we propose that inefficient anticipatory mechanisms may represent a common underlying thread linking the spoken language, reading, and handwriting difficulties associated with dyslexia.

Abraz Hussein, an adult with DLD tells his story. He got through primary without much support, but at start of secondary was permanently excluded. Then went to PRU before getting diagnosed and going to a special school for speech and language. Support makes all the difference!
