What helps a teenage boy who has a diagnosed dyslexic processing issue to fill in the gap between him being asked a question and his response? He has to develop a coping mechanism to not seem as if he is stalling the teacher or uninterested in a friend’s story.

Your description suggests that in addition to his learning disability (current school term for dyslexia) he might have a receptive/expressive language disability. If this is correct, a speech-language therapist will be able to help him. If this concept is new to you, learn about language disabilities.
