## What is Dyslexia Test?

Online Reading Tutor (ORT) has helped hundreds of smart kids and adults who struggle with reading. If you believe you or your child may have a reading disability or dyslexia, use the ORT Dyslexia Test for immediate results. In just 5 to 10 minutes, this app can identify specific reading problems and recommend a training program that will help you or your child develop fluent, automatic reading skills. When decoding becomes automatic, comprehension improves dramatically.

After completing the test, you may sign up for a Free Trial of our Orton-Gillingham based software, which has been endorsed by the Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE). We guarantee students using ORT will start to see significant gains after 30 hours of on-task training. Students with an IEP for their learning disability are our specialty.  You may also request a call from one of our reading specialists to discuss your or your child’s reading challenges, and see how we can help.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-10-04, version 2.2.2*

I didn’t even get to try it because the audio didn’t work I know I have dyslexia and I wanted to try out apps to see if they were accurate and I didn’t even get to try this one. But from what I could see, it wasn’t testing very well.

### 1/5 — it’s bad

*2025-01-25, version 2.2.2*

you can’t even hear it so u won’t be able to use it

### 1/5 — No sound

*2023-12-19, version 2.2.2*

Downloaded and deleted 5 times. No sound at all. Bluetooth is off, WiFi is off, on.. nothing works. So we can’t even use it. Glad I didn’t pay for it. Worthless with iPhone. Don’t recommend the waste of your time

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2022-09-14, version 2.2.2*

I liked this app because it really helped solidify that we needed help with my kiddo! Stating the online tutoring now. Bob is excellent and I can’t wait to see where we get with the lessons!

### 5/5 — Quick and easy

*2022-08-20, version 2.2.2*

The app was quick and easy to operate.  Very user-friendly.  I wish the school system would provide something like this directly for parents, so we don't have to dig and find our answers elsewhere.  I'm excited to get the process started and watch my children gain the confidence that they have been missing with their reading skills.

### 5/5 — Great test

*2022-08-19, version 2.2.2*

This was a great test to determine if my son is dyslexic. It started us on a path to success.

### 5/5 — Great app for quick use

*2022-05-14, version 2.2.2*

This is a great app to quickly see where your child might have difficulty decoding words through reading and sound. It’s easy for the kiddos and parents to use.

### 5/5 — Fast & accurate report!

*2021-11-24, version 2.2.2*

My daughter is 7 and reading has not come naturally to her as it did my son. The test was fast and she enjoyed the trials. I appreciated the free email with a breakdown of her errors!! This app has helped me understand that her difficulties may need different strategies than what we (and her teachers) can offer to her. I’m signing her up and looking forward to her future as a more fluent reader! :)

### 1/5 — No sound

*2021-11-22, version 2.2.2*

Sound does not work

### 5/5 — Thankful

*2020-10-23, version 2.2.2*

I am so thankful i found this app and this program. My son has been struggling and taking this test, now i can understand my son has dyslexia. Bob words and explanation was helpful.
