    My time spent interning for Donald Takacs was a significant period in my undergraduate career and one which nurtured my interest in school psychology. Donald Takacs, president of the “Dyslexia Society of Connecticut” had partnered with the University of Connecticut to create his Phonics-based Multisensory Reading program. Mr. Takacs introduced me to Dr. Sally Shaywitz’s science-based program for reading difficulties through her book “Overcoming Dyslexia”. The consequences of stereotyping individuals with this disability and lack of detection were clear and disheartening. As an intern, I applied the knowledge I had gained from Mr. Takacs by developing weekly lesson plans for three early elementary school students who showed signs of reading difficulties.

He explained how some students that have not been identified as having dyslexia may appear as lazy, disruptive, or struggles with school. On the other hand, there are some students that can play it off enough that it hides their difficulties.…
