Online Testing for Dysgraphia
Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects fine motor skills like handwriting, buttoning a shirt, or cutting food. It also impacts the mental processes associated with writing, like picking a topic, organizing ideas, and making a coherent point.

Has unfinished words or letters, omitted words
Inconsistent spacing between words and letters
Exhibits strange wrist, body or paper position

Copying or writing is slow or labored

Dysgraphia is a brain-based disorder, and it can be improved with accommodations and, in some cases, occupational therapy. We will use the assessment information to make relevant recommendations for both work and home.
