Dyslexia is a learning disability that specifically affects reading and related language-based processing skills.
GLOBAL INCLUSIVE TECHNO EDUCATION GROUP’s plan is to serve as a blueprint to work with educational partners to provide direction and expectations as we strive to improve the academic achievement of students with disabilities, enhance special education programs and provide an integrated system of general supervision of the Individualized Education Program(IEP) process.
Our organization advocated for the rights and protection of disabled and students with learning disabilities to be provided with free appropriate public and inclusive education around the world.

Diagnostic of Dyslexia
How is dyslexia diagnosed?
Despite its biological basis, dyslexia can’t be diagnosed with a simple blood test or brain scan. When doctors make a diagnosis, they consider the results of a series of reading tests along with the symptoms reported by the person, their parents, or their teachers.
