1. Dyslexia
In general, students are very concerned about their education. They are not sure about
what they learn something new. Sometimes, they can’t remember for many days because they
are not attentive in class. Dyslexia is a reading and spelling problem that is seen in every
education level and age. The definition of dyslexia expresses that someone has dyslexia when
their reading performance is significantly behind what may be expected based on their
intelligence and the following reading education and only when there are no damages of
memorable system, which causes the reading disability.
Dyslexia gives students a specific learning disability, spelling problems, and problems
with reading.
When students are dyslexic, they always have a specific learning disability. It is
important that students commit prepare the time very well. They are to create a clear schedule
so that they can do their work on the following day. In contrast, if the students are dyslexic,
they will never do that step because they are still complex. Although they are better to
improve their performance by studying part-time, they often fell nervous. According to
Goodwin (2006) “Finding and organizing time for study is a challenge for every student, but
an even bigger one if you are dyslexic” (P.15). For example, I had a friend, and she studied
with me last term. She told me that she had difficult, understanding that concept, and she
didn’t really focus on her study because she was busy working at a company.
In Cambodia, many students arechallenged to find a job due to lack of education. When they
start to study at university, they don’t know what they want to be. Sometime, it is probable
that a director of the university thinks of his own benefit rather than the students’ learning.
Another reason that makes students dyslexic is an array with very serious difficult to
very mild. Dyslexia and specific learning difficulties has relation between so serious difficult
issues and not serious ones. Those can happen when the students start turning a simple
process into severity of difficulty. In fact, they are dyslexic to learn specifics, but they are so
proud of themselves. They always tell others that they are better that many others.

2. Sometimes, they are ambitious to challenge highly, and that could corrupt their brain. Their
memories are weak, so they will not remember all. According to Malpas (2012) “Dyslexia
and S.p.L.D has an array from these with very serious difficult to very mild problem” (P.06).
For example, a person who lives near my house had never studied at college. He can’t do
anything, but what he said seems to be true. Last time, he had learned political science.
Because he tried so hard to maximize his strengths, his struggle made him challenge his
brain. Therefore, he has mental problems since then.
In Cambodia, many students rarely get a good job, because they ignore their education. When
the assignment given by teacher is so hard, they don’t struggle their best to do that. They
lightly affected by the difficulties but are able to maximize their performances. That is a
social accident, and our country could not be improved the educational system.
Dyslexic students learn with spelling problem whenever they never know a new word.
The students trying to learn many days can’t speak well because they have spelling
impairment. They could not spell that word when its pronunciation is so complicated.
According to Lowe (2010) “Dyslexia is characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or
fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and reading disability” (P.08). For example, my
young brother is too weak to read an English word because of long spelling. He tells me that
he wants to quit learning, but I tell him back you should learn the phonetic because it is the
basic learning of words.
Students would make a speech and language impairment because of complex sound.
The students can’t develop fluid speech well because they have bad genes when their parents
gave to them. The bad genes can combine with poor discrimination, so they can’t be able to
recognize the difference between things. They always confuse something when they hear
about that they are difficult to make the correct sounds and classify speech sounds because
their memories are weak. According to Malpas (2010) “slow development of speech and/or
poor understanding of long and complex sounds may also be due to the same genetic
inheritance” (P.05). For example, we are supposed to one family that has a poor education.
The parents of that family didn’t learn anything because they had just experienced in Pol Pot
regime. Pol Pot regime is not allowed someone to go to school, but farm in the field. After
Pol Pot regime was attacked, they had nothing with themselves.Since thenthey ran a small
business, they had got one boy.Many years ago, he enrolled a class in grade 8, and he also
studied part-time in English. He seemed to beunaware of something because he rarely
understood when teacher explained the lesson. He was probably less competent due to his
parents’ genes.
3. The last reason that finds dyslexic is for students, it seems to have problems with
reading. The students are to be smart enough to choose books correctly. What they want to
read is a fundamental part of learning. Theydon’t know how to buy them sometimes. They
then take one of them to read. But it is for advanced learner to acknowledge. As result, they
can read a little word in that book. That’ a reason they always have troubles with reading.
Theycan also reduce their attention and concentration because there are so many hard words
and phrases to remember. According to Goodwin (2006) “the reading material is carefully
selected, so you’ll spend less time searching for the relevant articles and information” (P.13).
For example,Darawent the PUC library last day, and he read a scientific book. The words he
read had never seen before. He couldn’t translate them because he didn’t have an English
dictionary. Therefore, he lost concentration, and he felt sleepy at that time.
Moreover, it can cause a slow, inaccurate, labored oral reading when it may be
because of uncomfortable and confusing visualsand words on the page.It is very serious that
they may include problems in reading comprehension and reduced reading experience that
can impede growth of vocabulary and background knowledge.According to Goodwin (2006)
“If you have trouble with reading, it may be because of visual discomfort and distortion of
print on the page” (P.13). For example, Tidy just bought a mathematic book yesterday. She
can’t see something precisely because the visuals of this book are printed in complicated
color.Shespendsdifficult time to do her homework whenever she comes back home. As result,
it seems probable that she will feel lost and bored.
In conclusion, when students have difficulty with dyslexia, they can’t reach to their
goals because they don’t know what they will become. They are disoriented in the problems
with spelling whenever they still have speech impairment. They increase the specific reading
error of switching and mirroring letters, magazines, and books if they are not careful to
purchase anything useless for themselves.
