Toe by Toe book on Amazon. You need someone to help you practice 20 mins a day but you'll fly through it. It works for adults as well as children. Good luck. ↑

Hi sarah I suffered from dyslexia and hate a similar problem during my GSCEs and A levels - I would do really well in my coursework then when it came to exams i would get Es and Us. I hated that. I have now been through a programme that has turned my life around you may want to give that a look? the name of the clinic is Dore or aka DDAT. I am now at university and have obtained a number of first class marks. ↑

dear sarah i realy know how you feel, but try not to copare your self to other people. and remember that everyone has some thing that they find difficult. may be you should tell your teacher how you are feeling and may be give her some information on dyslexia. ↑
