Speech and Language Assessment for Dyslexia and Learning Difficulties in Nea Makri.

When a child or teenager has persistent difficulties with reading, spelling or comprehension, a specialist speech and language assessment helps the family understand the nature of the difficulty and the most appropriate next step.

What the assessment includes

The assessment is not limited to a general picture of school performance. It examines individual skills related to reading, spelling, comprehension, phonological processing, working memory and attention. The aim is to give the family a clear understanding of the child’s specific difficulties and needs.

  • A detailed history is taken and discussed with the family.
  • Targeted testing for learning and language skills.
  • Use of eye-tracking technology when clinically indicated.
  • Clear communication of findings and next steps.

How Assessment Helps

After assessment, the family has a clearer picture of whether the difficulty is related to decoding, reading fluency, spelling, language processing, or cognitive factors. This allows for a more targeted intervention and avoids general exercises that do not address the real cause.

Why early assessment is important

A proper assessment helps to distinguish dyslexia from other learning, language, or cognitive difficulties. This way, the treatment plan becomes specific, with goals that can be monitored in practice.
