Dyslexia is the most common specific learning disorder. Around 5% - 15% of elementary school students have dyslexia (APA,
2013). Children with dyslexia might appear different at school and tend to get lower academic scores in comparison with their
peers. Hence, this may increase the possibility for the children with dyslexia to have low self-esteem (Mash & Wolfe, 2016)
because their peers’ opinions about them play an important role in affecting their self-esteem (Veenstra et al., 2007, dalam
Taylor, Hume, & Welsh, 2010). The aim of this study is to give a representation about the effect of dyslexia to the self-esteem
of elementary school students with the expectance to increase the awareness to detect and give early intervention to dyslexic
children. The research method is literature review using articles obtained online from several databases. There were 5 selected
research articles with the criteria of the participants in the study aged between 6 – 12 years old, and the used the instruments
to measure specific learning disorder and also self-esteem. The result of this literature review shows that dyslexia can affect
the self-esteem of elementary school students.
