The Premier Dyslexia Website for Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs)
Welcome to Dyslexia A2Z
Maria Chivers has dedicated over 35 years to understanding and “Raising Awareness of all Aspects of Neurodiversity, including Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia, Dyspraxia and Visual Stress”.
On this site, you will find extensive information – help, support & resources for a wide range of specific learning difficulties (SpLDs): dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia and dyspraxia. There is also a section on visual stress and how the knock-on effect of visual tension can cause learning difficulties.
Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs) cause people to worry considerably about getting the right help, particularly for their children at school. The information on this site will point you in the right direction to get help and support and to find resources that are tried and tested to help people with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia and visual stress.
Maria Chivers operates this site and is an international author on dyslexia and other learning difficulties. Her portfolio of titles (seven books) includes her latest and first children’s book.

Retirement Plans
Maria Chivers announces her retirement plans.
To all my Wonderful Colleagues
After 35 years of dedication to the education field, supporting thousands of individuals with dyslexia and other neurodiverse challenges, I have made the difficult decision to retire. As I approach 70 years of age, and with a major operation scheduled next week followed by another in six months, I feel it is the right time to step back and embrace a slower pace of life.
My time at the Swindon Dyslexia Centre and, more recently, Dyslexia A2Z, has been incredibly fulfilling. It has been an honour to publish several books on dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, and other related topics. I am profoundly grateful for the opportunities to grow both personally and professionally, and for the privilege of contributing to such meaningful work. This decision has not been easy, as I have always loved what I do, but I now find that I can no longer commit the time and energy required to maintain the level of success I hold myself to.
I sincerely thank my colleagues and friends for their unwavering support, encouragement, and advice over the years. Our work together has been immensely rewarding, and I will forever cherish the memories of our shared experiences.
As I prepare to leave, I am confident that our capable younger colleagues will continue the important work we’ve started. I wish them all the best and ongoing success in the years ahead.
Warmest regards,
Maria Chivers
