That's not how it works if someone actually has dyslexia. They often won't be able to spot the difference.
The two people with dyslexia that I've worked with made fewer typos than I do.

I'm not so sure dyslexia is a sufficient reason.

Hopefully a bit more diplomatically than that, though.

But, I agree. Encourage him to go over all of his work once or twice more, and use spellchecking tools, before committing or sending out email/slack/whatever.

If he's truly dyslexic, it won't necessarily help all that much, but if he's just really sloppy it most definitely will.
