Good morning,
This test brings together what you see in your child: decoding and fluency, spelling and copying, recurring mix-ups between similar letters or sounds, tiredness, and the tactics they use to avoid reading and writing. Based on your observations, the report shows where each of these areas stands.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 63 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book Adolescence in Crisis, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
Does my child show signs of dyslexia? — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test brings together what you notice about how your child copes with written language: reading, spelling, letter and sound mix-ups, and tiredness at school. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): an interpretation of its 5 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 14 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This interactive test covers your child's reading, spelling, letter and sound mix-ups, school fatigue, and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Reading difficulties “When reading aloud, my child skips words or goes back over the same word.” “After a period of learning, my child reads a sentence in one go, without sounding out each word.” Writing difficulties “When copying, my child writes 'gril' where the model said 'girl'.” “With the model in front of them, my child copies quickly and without errors.” Letter and sound confusions “My child writes some letters backwards, as if in a mirror.” “My child reads and writes letters the right way round, without flipping them.” School fatigue and avoidance “When it is time for reading homework, my child refuses, cries or leaves the table.” “Faced with a text or a writing exercise, my child gets started without losing heart.” Readiness to change “What I've just described weighs on my life as a parent.” “I want to take action to better support my child in this area.”
About this test
▼
Dimensions assessed
- ●Your view of your child's reading and writing difficulties- The way you explain your child's reading and writing difficulties, before the test tells you anything. This section does not measure any difficulty or produce a level: it simply records your initial view.
- ●Reading difficulties- Signs observed in reading activities: decoding, fluency, comprehension, and endurance.
- ●Writing difficulties- Errors observed in writing: frequent mistakes, letter reversals, omissions, and difficulties with dictation.
- ●Letter and sound confusions- Visual or phonological confusions between similar letters or sounds (b/d, p/q, f/v, similar vowel sounds...).
- ●School fatigue and avoidance- Exhaustion, demotivation and avoidance strategies observed in connection with reading and writing activities.
- ●Readiness to Change- Your readiness to explore solutions and to support your child through an assessment or follow-up.
Reference frameworks and authors
This test identifies observable signs that may warrant a specialist assessment. It is not a diagnostic tool. Only a formal assessment by a qualified speech-language pathologist (SLP) can diagnose dyslexia or dysgraphia. Dyslexia is neither a lack of effort nor a lack of intelligence — it is a difference in how the brain processes written language, found in bright and curious children.
Why take this test?
▼
This test brings together what you see in your child: decoding and fluency, spelling and copying, recurring mix-ups between similar letters or sounds, tiredness, and the tactics they use to avoid reading and writing. Based on your observations, the report shows where each of these areas stands.
The questionnaire explores 5 areas: Your view of your child's reading and writing difficulties, Reading difficulties, Writing difficulties, Letter and sound confusions, School fatigue and avoidance. Your answers support reflection, not a diagnosis. A separate module explores readiness to change; it is not another trait of the model presented.

Check the introduction for who should answer: an adult, child or teenager. Do not answer on someone else’s behalf if the questionnaire asks for their own perspective.
Can I retake the test later?
▼
Yes, you can retake this test as many times as you wish. Some people take it again after several months to observe how their profile evolves. Each new attempt generates its own report — previous answers are not reused.
What should I do with my results?
▼
The report organises your answers and offers points for reflection. You can discuss it with a professional; it does not replace their assessment or prescribe treatment.
Can people close to me also take it?
▼
Yes. Each person gets their own anonymous, unique report, based on THEIR answers. Comparing profiles within a family or couple can be useful — provided each person takes the test honestly and on their own, without influencing one another during the answers.
