techniques for helping husband
Posted: 12-18-07 09:35am

My husband is dyslexic. One thing that we do to pass on information is listen to audio tapes. He takes a very "broad" minded approach to learning and likes to learn entire concepts and figure out the big picture first.

Plus, I've learned NOT to overload him with details at once and to take only thing at a time. I'm the detail queen King so I am challenged in my way of thinking, simply by trying to help him understand better.

Are there any others out there who are working on improving communication with a dyslexic partner or loved one? What do you do???

Just don't force or reprimand the reading ... and don't make fun of his mistakes!
