Abstract

The aim of the study was to analyze how students with spelling disorders use the therapeutic systems offered in Poland, in opinions of themselves and their parents. Two questionnaires were developed, one for parents and one for children with spelling disorder. 621 parents and their 621 children with that disorder participated in the study (online reviews). Almost a half of the group attended therapeutic sessions at their schools and half of them had sessions at psychological-pedagogical counseling centers or other public or private education institutions (typically once a week). Almost half of the group trained their spelling abilities at home with different exercise books with spelling and also reading exercises (twice a week). Only 35 persons had any forms of therapy at all. Available therapeutic methods are not enough effective, interesting, attractive for their users and don’t motivate to work. 84% of study participants need new therapeutic methods.

Keywords: Spelling disorder, therapy, home practice.
