Objective is to deliver, a phonological support to enhance reading skills of dyslexic children by providing a machine learning based automated screening and intervention mobile solution. Through these reading environments, there's a reward system in intervention process to encourage the user, and also users and respective parties can analyze user's progress. The proposed system is mainly based on Voice recognition, Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning and Deep Learning concepts collaborating with reading and gaming environments. Core Objective of the proposed system is to come up with a better and effective screening and intervention methodologies for early identification of Dyslexia and provide phonological training to overcome Sinhala reading difficulties due to Dyslexia in a user friendly manner.
