Dyslexia is a learning disorder that affects reading, writing, and language comprehension skills. This condition often hinders a child's academic development despite having normal or above-average intelligence. This study focuses on the application of electroencephalography (EEG)-based neurolinguistic intervention to improve reading abilities in children with dyslexia. The research data were collected from a Special Needs School in Makassar using a case study approach to analyze changes in reading skills and neural activity before and after the intervention. The findings indicate that integrating EEG technology and neurolinguistic approaches in special education can be an effective solution for addressing dyslexia. Further studies are needed to evaluate long-term effects and expand the application of this therapy to a broader population.
