Abstract

A case study of developmental dyslexia of a university student is presented. The purpose of this work is to describe the process of evaluation, intervention and monitoring from the University Service of Psychological and Psychopedagogical Attention (SAP). The results indicate the importance of the development of a program adapted to individual needs and the adequate training of certain skills for learning in higher education.
