Dyslexia is a type of learning disabilities that affects reading ability among children where they usually experience difficulty to recognize and to pronounce letters and words.

Therefore, in this study, a web-based learning application called Prolexia was developed by integrating it with Voice Recognition Technology. Prolexia aims to reduce confusion of alphabets. The principles used to design it is a combination of both Multisensory and Structured Literacy approach.
