"It most  often shows up when the student tries to learn English"

That is because English is non-visual and phonetic- if these children did  
not need to learn English then theoretically they would not in effect  be what 
is thought of as "dyslexic" simply because their own langauge is to  them 
readable and they would be termed literate. They may though still have  auditory or 
visual processing difficulties.
