Common reading difficulties often stem from challenges in processing language or visual information. Dyslexia is one of the most well-known, characterized by trouble with phonological processing and word recognition. Some readers face issues with fluency, where they read too slowly to maintain comprehension, or struggle with a limited vocabulary that hinders their ability to grasp complex texts. Attention-related issues, such as ADHD, can make it difficult to stay focused on a passage for extended periods. Others may experience visual processing disorders, where letters appear to jump or blur. These difficulties can lead to frustration and a lack of motivation. Identifying these challenges early through assessment allows for targeted interventions, such as multisensory instruction or specialized tutoring, to help individuals overcome these barriers.
