Dyslexia:
Dyslexia is a general term for a disorder that involves difficulty in learning to read or interpret words, letters, and other symbols, but this does not affect general intelligence. Study shows that most people think that Dyslexia causes people to reverse letters and numbers and see words backward. Reversals do happen but this is a normal part of the development and is seen in most kids until they reach a bit older. This makes it hard to understand short or familiar words or to sound out longer words.
ADHD:
ADHD stands for attention deficit hyperactive disorder. It is a medical condition. A person with ADHD has differences within the brain development system and brain activity that affects attention, the ability to sit still, and self-control. ADHD can affect children and adults in school, at home, and in friendships. People diagnosed with ADHD have a harder time staying focused. ADHD can make it difficult to keep behavior under control. This means kids and teenagers may get into more trouble.

Dyscalculia is a specific and persistent difficulty in understanding numbers that can lead to a diverse range of difficulties with mathematics. It will be unexpected in relation to age, level of education, and experience and it occurs across a variety of all ages and abilities. Dyscalculia is only a learning disorder related to maths, people can still exceed in other subjects such as English or History.
Dysgraphia:
Dysgraphia can appear as difficulties when spelling and or troubling writing down thoughts. Dysgraphia is a neurological disorder that generally appears when children learn to write.
