Accomm-educator. Demystifying Math Struggles. Introduction Since the YCDC website began in 2007, we have received many requests about how best to help dyslexic students struggling with math.

Demystifying Math Struggles

We reached out to Chris Woodin, the head of the Math Department at Landmark School, a respected school that specializes in teaching students with language-based learning issues, to help us find alternative methods for mitigating common math struggles that seem to accompany dyslexia. Woodin offered many helpful strategies to help address them, and we hope that it will help other teachers and parents who are looking for ways to support dyslexic children with math. We also hope that if you are a math specialist or a parent of a child who has struggled in math, you will share what has worked for you. Breaking Down Math In the classroom, we break down the complex processing tasks of reading and spelling into various subskills that can be tested and analyzed.
