Hello all,
Which font works with students who have reading problems? I have heard that Comic Sans is the right font for those diagnosed with dyslexia - is that true? Has anyone used that font with dyslexic students?

Hi! Comic sans ms is a good font for students with reading difficulties. I know that some members here don �t really like it but when I upload work here, it is for a use with students so I use it all the time. |

Yes, Alex, I think Verdana is another recommended font. The last time I looked into this (a couple of months ago) a team was working on a specifically dyslexia-friendly font, but I can �t remember any more than that about it. |

In my school, we are asked to use Arial 16 with those kids.
