In recent decades there has been great interest in the study of dyslexia and the difficulties that students with dyslexia presented in reading. The result of the various studies have found dyslexia as a complex disorder with a multifactorial genesis in the predominantly phonological difficulties, neuropsychological and other learning, among which is the acquisition of a second language level. At present, due to the global society in which we live, the language skills are essential, especially English, as is the international language par excellence, and has various uses both inside and outside of Spain. Therefore, the importance and novelty of this work lies in the development of a preventive neuropsychological program to address generally the cognitive and neuropsychological processes involved in students with dyslexia, and specifically, the proposal of a program to promote learning English as a second language teachers to provide English guidance, methods, activities and materials in order to contribute to improving the teaching and learning of students with dyslexia.
