День тому

In this inspiring talk, advocate and educator Dean Bragonier offers a different take on Dyslexia. By looking at the unique mindset of Dyslexics as a strength, Dean reframes a perceived weakness as a powerful tool and teaches us all an important lesson about the power of an open mind and an open heart.
Dean Bragonier is a social entrepreneur in the EdTech space. Shaped by the challenges associated with his dyslexia, Dean became an advocate for learning and disability equality and has founded, managed and served on the boards of organizations working to create systemic change in this field. As the Founder and Executive Dyslexic of NoticeAbility Inc., Dean leads a collaborative team from Harvard University, Tufts University and the Carroll School that is building curricula designed to offer authentic inquiry experiences in vocational subjects that cater to the neurological strengths of the dyslexic mind.
Upon graduation, Dean embraced his entrepreneurial instincts and acquired a small seasonal restaurant on Martha's Vineyard Island that he transformed into a successful full-scale enterprise (see Boston Magazine, July 2001). It was through this endeavor that he was able to contextualize his years of laborious academic learning and discover the true gifts of his dyslexic mind.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

I have dyslexia and when I was in school this was an unknown world in our education system (I am 80 years old - just so you have an idea of a time frame when I was in school). I was called "stupid" and "least likely to succeed in life" most of my years in school. I couldn't even read until I was 13 years old. Luckily I had one person that never stopped believing in me. That person was ME. I overcame every imaginable obstacle in my life and from not being able to read until I was in my teens to writing my own book, 'Memoirs of a Learning Disabled Dyslexic Multi-Millionaire', I am one who has succeeded beyond the wildest dreams of my detractors.

In a vicious night a shadow appeared in veil of darkness. Silence screamed in his tears as he seems breaking down in shards. He was there to share a story, a tale buried deeper to the core somewhere within him vast and mysterious. About the lives and grief. Sohan was a dyslexic child who lost his childhood in humiliation and sorrow. No one, not even he knew about this rare disorder in Nepal. There was no one to support him, guide him or show him the way out into the light. He felt discarded by the world when he was just a kid and then everything got worse when his parents also left him at the age of time. He was boarded into a boarding house, far from home far from his mother. At the boarding house he was like a bird caged with the wing chopped surrounded by the predators. He was just a child but no one cared what he was going through the piles of maltreatments. He survived worst in his childhood but still life had many more pain to offer. Seeing no progress of their child at boarding house the parents decided to take him back. He was back home but there was nothing like the home he used to remember, everything was changed, everything. Each day they was fight, there was war and all the time he used to blaming himself for everything. He used to blame himself for his family pain and trouble. Mistreated and lost he attempt to end his life, but he didn’t had a courage to execute the deed. He tried to runaway but there was no place to go. He was just an alone teen. His uncle took the charge admitting him at a new school far from Sohan's house. The kind uncle tried to help him in any ways he could. All his childhood Sohan was looking one chance to prove himself, one opportunity to explore his abilities without anyone mocking his showing him the flaws of his pasts and was it. Sohan was happy as he was free from the humiliation and maltreatment. He started making friends and started progressing on his study. He thought god has been merciful but he was wrong once again. Few friends from his past school joint him. His world came crashing down. The friends he thought he had got turned their back when they heard about him. The mocking started, the maltreatment begin leaving Sohan alone and abandon again. The world never show him love so he didn’t had any affection towards the world, he started hating all. The kind uncle was getting into lot of trouble while assisting him. Sohan decided not....... www.amazon.com/Alive-Shadow-dyslexia-motivational-story-ebook/dp/B01HAHA9K6/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1476345317&sr=1-1&keywords=alive+in+shadow Alive In Shadow , An inspirational story...

My husband is dyslexic. Sometimes the way he sees things and puts stuff together amazes me. He can look at stuff for a few min, and sees an outcome that it takes others (professionals) hours to get to. He loves putting stuff together. He doesn't need to read directions to put a desk together. He looks at the diagram of the desk and just seems to know how to do it. He amazes me.

At age 6 the teacher threw me out of class for "acting dumb during reading" (dyslexia). I excelled in maths and telling stories, but not reading. Luckily my parents enrolled me in another school where I was allowed to read at my pace, (mostly books with a picture for each letter or word. apple = a; banana = b, etc). Now I have several university degrees in accounting, finance, and management.

I was 9 and balled my eyes out while she was telling me this because I felt immense shame because I was trying so hard to do well and I felt like a complete failure.

One lesson I have learned that I want to pass on to you: Never let anyone define who you are. One person, or many for that matter, does not control how you turn out. Your determination, courage, and belief in yourself DOES. God bless and keep on keeping on. You are needed in this world and you can/will make a difference.

Early on, I had a problem with reading so they gave me an IQ test that showed me as "gifted". From that, they determined that I must be "lazy". To my father, that was a characteristic that was intolerable. That destroyed our relationship from then on. I graduated from High School on the stipulation that I would never set foot back into the building. Not too long afterwards, I was drafted into the military and given a barrage of tests. The one they were most interested in was the "General Technical test" which I nearly maxed. The army pushed me towards the Army Security Agency. Less than 3% of people qualify for that. Once there, I was sent to cryptanalysis school which is offered to less than one out of fifty. On completion, I volunteered for the Special Operations Detachment an element of the 10th Special Forces Group. The military gave me the confidence that I could accomplish most anything. After returning to college, I was an above average student but couldn't understand why I wasn't at the very top of the class. My last semester, before graduation, I took a snap course called "Testing and Evaluation". It was then that I learned I was dyslexic. I have kept it a secret for decades until my grandson was diagnosed.

Dyslexia is a tricky thing. It runs in my family. My daughter has recently been diagnosed. It breaks my heart that she is going to have to work so hard to achieve what she needs to achieve. I have a bachelor of education. People ask me, how can you be dyslexic and be highly educated. I always tell people, a pass is a pass. It's hard for me. I struggle. I get marked down for basic errors, especially referencing. That has been the bane of my higher education experience. Another dyslexic parent said to his dyslexic kids...C get degrees. At the end of the day, what does it matter if you got 52% or 92%. You have the same knowledge, you do the same job. Just keep swimming.

You believe Dyslexia is genetic? I’ve had so many different things on what it is all right it is not. I’m dyslexic and so is my daughter. I use to feel ( and sometimes still do) bad for passing this to her. But I’m beginning to see the blessing in it. I use to say “I’m very successful in spite of my dyslexia” but maybe it’s because of it.

I'm dyslexic. I teach ELA. What? Yeah. 7th grade English almost broke me, but in 8th grade ELA we did poetry. Suddenly, I was smart in English again. Suddenly, I was selected to be published. The creativity of poetry freed me to shine. After that, nothing could hold me back. I majored in English Education in College and went on to get my Masters in Special Education. All of that was with no "added help" from the resource center, because I no longer qualified. While I was dyslexic my disability wasn't holding me back enough to justify help. That was a good feeling. All this to say... please don't loose hope. Find what you love then work your butt off to do it better than anyone else.

Ashley, you have very mild dyslexia. I deal with dyslexics daily. There are different types of dyslexia and degrees: Mild, Moderate, Severe. You cannot imagine the severe problems a true dyslexic has with reading, writing, math, and memory. Oh, and dyslexia usually co-occurs with other neurological issues.

I also suffer from depression,anxiety and Irene snow syndrome. Although I’m intelligent enough I could not. Finish my university degree. I have moderate dyslexia I find life hard because of it and I work very hard so that most people don’t know I have it......I can not imagine having severe dyslexia and my Ashley have mild dyslexia not everyone can make it by just trying harder which is why it’s a learning that requires support assistance.

I was placed in a school for the dyslexia in 1967 it was a school for dyslexic students and mentally retarded students. Two years later I was placed back into public school but was locked out of the class room. I was made to sit in the hall way. I really felt like I was being punished. In high school I was sent to juvenile court twice for drinking and drugs. I barely received my high school diploma. The first computers came out when I was in my late 20's. I purchased one and taught myself to program. When I turned 30 I quite my job to attend college. I finished collage with a GPA of 3.68 and graduated magna cum laude.

Since attending 3 x 1 hour dyslexia courses for parents with children with dyslexia I have started changing how I speak about it (e.g. it's not a hinderance it's a gift because he can see things differently than others and create amazing things). Since changing my perspective, his has too, where he wouldn't even try and read a street sign because he felt stupid and dumb (his confidence was shot), now he'll attempt to read words in a book e.g. diary of a wimpy kid. It's a complete turn around. I can only imagine how hard school is, day in and day out being around other children that are completing tasks so easily that seem so hard for him, he has to work HARD to achieve in reading and writing, we were told to work smarter not harder - e.g. if he can't type or write a story, use a dictation programme, get other friends to take notes for them, use tinder audio books to keep exposing to new vocabulary. It's not going to be easy but it's not going to beat us either. Good luck to you and your boy

There is great satisfaction in making you own way in life in spite of the obstacles that try to put you down. I still have no formal education, but my drive to learn, improve my life has put me in good stead. I'm not a millionaire but in terms of my life success I might as well be one.

@@sgntbilco I’m doing well, compared to before. Still have a bit of depression and anxiety come into my mind sometime but I know what causes it and what helps it go away now. I’m switching my university course to hopefully being a teacher. I’ve realised my role in this world is to lead those that are also lost. There are too many kids and teens that suffer wayyy too much in school, I always wished I had a teacher that actually cared, didn’t teach in such a linear way and was more practical. I always wondered if someone like that existed. What better person to fill that role than myself haha. My dyslexia does make it hard still but, my strengths are never going to be anything to do with being an academic. My social intelligence, my willingness to give stuff a go and help those also give stuff a go, my way of melting into environments and bringing a chill vibe with me. That’s what I’m useful for. My love for the arts, health and fitness, and people are my strengths at the moment. I’m looking forward to the future now, hopefully I make an impact.

All my life I was called stupid or dumb and even worse things than that. I've been medically diagnosed dyslexia and dyspraxia and I have suffered for as long as I remember. Know I'm doing a computer science degree and I'm passing everything because I'm not letting people tell me that "I won't be able o do that or this" in two of my second-year exams I got marks up in the 90s out of a 100 and a number of people that were shock of this was incredible I got higher marks than the geniuses and the autistic students, and those students thought I was dumb. Don't give up on yourself believe in the things you do, yeah we have to work 10 times harder but that feeling of success is amazing :-) please believe in yourselves my dyslexic brothers and sisters YOU ARE NOT STUPID, I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!1

I was fortunate to be homeschooled by my mother, I struggled with dyslexia but I didn't have most of the challenges people have in school. She helped me to write with silicon sand in a tray with my finger, It gave some tactile response to writing. I never had the shame about it because my mother always encouraged me. I use voice recognition software for writing on my computer along with a program called Grammarly that helps with sentence structure, grammar, punctuation. Reading is still difficult for me but I will never give up and I always persevere I don't put myself down for it.

I often can't express myself totally as I would like and I am very bad in calculations.

Nobody can be terrible at math as I am. I can't even perform simple basic calculations at shops when I buy stuff. I need to have my phone and calculator to calculate change, otherwise I'm screwed. I have been cheated sooo many times by shopkeepers because I cannot count change. I have to step aside the queue at supermarket and calculate change on calculator and only after confirming that he has not given it wrong or that I've been cheated yet again, I can leave. The whole process drains my mental energy and that's why I start perspiring at every social places. That's the main big reason I don't go to shops alone without someone who I can rely upon to say whatever I have bought is done fairly. Btw, idk if I have dyslexia or not.

It took me several times to understand what I was reading, but by myself I was able to overcome, and control it by taking my time. So reading things over and over again if I had to until I understood what I just read or realize that I had mixed letter or numbers in the wrong place..by reading and more reading I was able to under things. Don't know if it would work for you but I never liked to read before my brother told me that it was a must for me to get books and just read..I have taught myself computer repair, how to develop 35mm film, and print ...just reading gave me something to be proud of, not like when I was in school and I felt like an outcast...GOD IS GOOD...thanks to my brother

Rohan read the next line. When someone says, "You see everthing in 2, maybe 3D, but I see it in a 6D" I have no clue even what is trying to be conveyed but I inferred it means better. Andrew continues, depicting what I would think is a LSD trip. If I misinterpret a "expression" then that is lack of understanding, and not the inability to read. People want to think that with dyslexia somehow your special or have powers that others magically do not have. In Andrew's case, seeing things in "6D". In reality, dyslexia's are just pathetic reader along with other things. Thanks for the replay Rohan, glad I could clear that up for you.

I think its better to say that instead of seeing only rout A to B u are able to see many more combinations of paths that can lead to the same thing: to get from B starting from A, I can also position myself at F hope over E cut thrue D and C and reach B. it might be longer and unpractical this way but you pick up much more understanding about things instead of always taking the 'right' path. What's that saying: you learn much more from a defeat than from a victory. That means mistakes are good for learning and understanding. For the dimension thing I don't think it's a good example. Here is my case: I got blue eyes and blue eyes are said to see more bright(more sensitive to light) I did a few tests on UKposts that classified me top 10% of population being able to recognize tone(I did not mange to reach top 3% tho). I also went to eye testers whenever my sister or dad needed to get new glasses. The tester once told me that if everyone had my eyes, glass shops would not exist! Anyway, the point is that before I knew I had good vision I always found myself arguing about color with people. an example is the main dragon from the movie dragon trainer. Everyone said he was black. I'm like, that's not black. that's blue!

I had problems reading, science, and math when younger in high school and I could tell something was wrong with me from other things going on with mind and body when I was younger. I would tell mama something's wrong, but she would get mad at me and the grades and say I better get those grades up. My brother and sister did good in school. I never come down hard on any of my kids. All of them do their best. I love them the same. I wish I could understand for the 2 kids with learning issues. The youngest says mommy it's hard. This is the first year of school for her. Homeschool.

I have dyslexia but I never went through school. I was homeschooled. My grandfather taught me a ton while working with him (he has dyslexia as well). Through working with him I learned how to read and comprehend with dyslexia. It isn't a barrier to me, there is a trick to it that just works. IDK if I could teach it to anyone, I wish I could, because reading is downright enjoyable for me.

I made it in real estate being able to creatively put together a no money down deal and also being able to see how the property could generate more income and cleaning painting fixing, making out buildings into storage units taking or into a small one bedroom apartment, taking big farm houses and making them into multi-unit Apartments . then sell it or refinance it pull money out to fix up the next one .then there was a fire in one of my apartment buildings the Township came out and condemned the hole property and all the rest of the 22 tenants had to move out insurance would have fixed up the damages but the morgage for that property was over 10,000 a month plus all other bills . so I lost all 10 my property's and went broke over the next couple months then I opened a Auto detailing shop then grew that into a car dealership and got my banking license so I could offer financing to my customers . worked so hard and so long had to go to the hospital a few times from exhaustion I needed a Iv i just worked till my hands bled I closed that up three years ago to go back into the cattle business .I grow up on a dairy farm and a number of my family are in the ag industry and are Cattle Dealers for the last 100 years I am severely dyslexic I when to the cross Roads school right out side Philadelphia and took Orton Gillingham to help with it I come from a long family of talented dyslexics with big picture thinking entrepreneurs when I was your my dad would see me struggling in school and trying to do home work and have to go to the resource room he would tell me wait until you get out of school things will change and then you can just higher a good secretary and that was it I'm the big picture problem solver leader people person and my employees do the paper work and I talk to my phone and my laptop and my TV and they talk back to me and so does my wife lol so for dyslexics things are getting better and my sister is severely dyslexic she graduated from Lynn University in Boca Raton FL with a MBA my 15 year old son is stealth dyslexic but is vary good in school and is going to Penn state University for ag business management with an MBA in creative Finance and I am creating a dairy cattle lease to own finance company for farmers because most banks want lend money to them to buy cows because they don't no cows and they don't make good securities but I have created terms paperwork and im using technology that we will be able to use the cows for security on the debt is have taken out a lot of the lengthy loan process and appraisal time and fees and prepayment penalties that the bank charges process no being turned down because of your det to income ratios . we are doing a no money down deal that they will be able the have the right quality cattle at a fare price and low to medium interest rate within a week's time and the first payment want come out of there milk check for 30 day so it gives the farmer/cows enough time be able to make your own payments I will come right out of there milk check before they get it service provided by the company .and the lease can be customized to fit their individual needs . so what I tell kids keep your head up school is the hardest then your going to get knocked down just keep getting back up us your gifts to creat and fix problems your going to fail that's how you learn so work harder fail faster so you can succeed don't let falling hold up back or you think your stupid. make it make you angry and work harder and more focused learn from the mistakes just don't keep making them. i go in to a deep stare and im watching the movie in my head clear in 3d in 365 degrees and im watching the movie is on fast forward and sometimes my wife or son says dad dad hay do you here me and I say o sorry . It comes in great when my wife is asking me to do something but she doesn't think it's so great. or when I'm talking about something I'm excited about my mind is a page ahead of what's coming out of my mouth and my wife says wait wait your not making sense you skipping around i say no sorry my mind is going 100 miles a hour faster them my word coming out of my mouth dose this stuff ever happen to anyone else.

I too am dyslexic with Mild Cerebral Palsy. I write Inspirational poems etc. I can make some typos due to misspelling and such. But lucky to find a friend here and there to edit for me. I also have vision problems I use one eye at a time and have no way to use both at the same time (this keeps me from seeing double.) Put the dyslexia with the vision problems and problems can and do arise; but not a problem. Problems come in when the folks that are considered (normal) don't realize those of us that appear to be different have so much to give back! We are all in this together... letha darlene

My daughter is severely dyslexic, and she is constantly trying to invent things, and is so confronted by text. At age 8 she is already dealing with challenges as the reading gap between her and her peers grows. I can attest that it is easily 5x harder for her than it is for others around her (at least). She is exhausted from it. And really she just wants to make things, build things, sell things, and make art. I look forward to this knowledge and corresponding curriculum becoming an integrated part of our educational system, and I look forward to more opportunities for her to be met in her style of learning. This a deeply emotional topic for those with dyslexia. I am grateful for this research, and will be following closely what you do! Aloha from Hawaii. Thanks!

My son has severe dyslexia. He also had dyscalculia and dysgraphia but he wants to be a scientist. He's a kid. However, I'm learning what has to be done to help him as an adult because he's asking me now if he's going to "make it" and we are looking to adults and adult dyslexics to help us figure this out. But the answer is YES, yes he is. And he's smart as a whip.

Omg. I just realised this morning that I might be dyslectic. I am 50. Looking back I overcame it by working hard. I had to “read” before every class and processed each written information to mentally understandable images and remembered them all. Reading information was never easy for me. I had to read each sentence more than ten time to access the meaning! I thought I was mentally lazy! I wrote a word more than ten times to remember them with my hand. With that efforts, I maintained the TOP grades and went to TOP rank school. Still, it has been a mystery to myself why I don’t enjoy reading. Then I found “Audible” and it is a whole new world to me. I could never tell teh difference between left and right in speaking until now! In yoga class, I still find it hard to tell which one is left or right, or which one is elbow or knee? Now it all makes sense! As all disabilities are so, dyslexia helped me develop other skills. Now I want to learn more about the social affects of it. It might tell me more why I always felt socially awkward although I am quite extrovert!

I think one thing us dyslexics can all relate to is trying your absolute hardest on a task or subject and falling extremely short wondering what's wrong with you. I can say that this hurt my self-esteem big time. Studying for a test or trying to read a book and having issues articulating it leading you to re-read it 10-15 times, only to fail the test. I didn't learn I was dyslexic until later in my life but I definitely wish there were classes catered to dyslexics.

I am a dyslexic homeschooling mom, with boys who struggle to read. I was told in 8th grade, during the 80s, and there was no help. I have a son who feels reading is "painful", however can put a lego set together in 30 mins to an hour, the large sets. He is 8 and the sets we buy are older ones. I have another son, who can not sit and read with out frustration and fights tooth and nail. He is able to remember a story he heard verbatem after hearing it once, this one is also able to work your relctronics with ease and fix your tablets and computers, he is also 8. I am a nurse, of 20+ years, in OB, and carry around an index card notebook of all the words I am unable to spell, but I am a great bedside technical Nurse, i am able to help you with what ailes you, even when i can not spell it correctly! So glad there is more research and time in public schools for this, and we will be getting the boys hooked into the MIT online course, also sidebar I went to RI and MA public schools, I have learned more in 4 years of homeschooling than i ever did in school.

As a person with dyslexia, I understand this fully. There are so many different stereotypes towards people with my condition. It is so hard to keep up with the pressures of life. You have to continuously prove yourself to people who think other of you. It can be drastically hurtful.when you can't live up too certain expectations. One thing I learned is that if you believe in yourself, the others will start to believe in you as well! Don't give up.

In a vicious night a shadow appeared in veil of darkness. Silence screamed in his tears as he seems breaking down in shards. He was there to share a story, a tale buried deeper to the core somewhere within him vast and mysterious. About the lives and grief. Sohan was a dyslexic child who lost his childhood in humiliation and sorrow. No one, not even he knew about this rare disorder in Nepal. There was no one to support him, guide him or show him the way out into the light. He felt discarded by the world when he was just a kid and then everything got worse when his parents also left him at the age of time. He was boarded into a boarding house, far from home far from his mother. At the boarding house he was like a bird caged with the wing chopped surrounded by the predators. He was just a child but no one cared what he was going through the piles of maltreatments. He survived worst in his childhood but still life had many more pain to offer. Seeing no progress of their child at boarding house the parents decided to take him back. He was back home but there was nothing like the home he used to remember, everything was changed, everything. Each day they was fight, there was war and all the time he used to blaming himself for everything. He used to blame himself for his family pain and trouble. Mistreated and lost he attempt to end his life, but he didn’t had a courage to execute the deed. He tried to runaway but there was no place to go. He was just an alone teen. His uncle took the charge admitting him at a new school far from Sohan's house. The kind uncle tried to help him in any ways he could. All his childhood Sohan was looking one chance to prove himself, one opportunity to explore his abilities without anyone mocking his showing him the flaws of his pasts and was it. Sohan was happy as he was free from the humiliation and maltreatment. He started making friends and started progressing on his study. He thought god has been merciful but he was wrong once again. Few friends from his past school joint him. His world came crashing down. The friends he thought he had got turned their back when they heard about him. The mocking started, the maltreatment begin leaving Sohan alone and abandon again. The world never show him love so he didn’t had any affection towards the world, he started hating all. The kind uncle was getting into lot of trouble while assisting him. Sohan decided not....... www.amazon.com/Alive-Shadow-dyslexia-motivational-story-ebook/dp/B01HAHA9K6/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1476345317&sr=1-1&keywords=alive+in+shadow Alive In Shadow , An inspirational story...

Im dyslexic and im 19 from Poland. In middle school I was super creative I created remote control arduino car, build few pc/android games to play with friends, guitar amp, arduino dj mixer and much more cool stuff. I was really really supported by my teachers they knew im dyslexic and they helped me with everything I built and struggle. Unfortunately, high school came. And I can describe it as end of my life I could live freely. Nobody care if I was dyslectic or not I was put to the same bin as others. I tried my best to make things I would create in middle school but only thing I would hear was "shut up, sit down and be quiet".I couldn't bear that. There was ONLY ONE teacher that cared about my dyslexia and those lessons were the best out of all. I felt like I;m me again. Well I almost finished highschool, the worst time of my short life, and I cried on this vid cuz it reminded my of who I was and what highschool did to teach me like everyone else no matter what. I realised that highschool succesfully killed all of my inspirations and ambitions. Im gonna watch this vid again tho. I'm still in tears.

I found that when i was in 9th grade i was always worried about asking people how to spell things and them judging me, but now i don't care what they think. when i get the responce "how do you not know how to spell that" i say my brain is diffrent and it hates to spell, or i say does it matter? ok i think i am rambling on a bit, bit just remember at at times it is going to be hard but it gets easier, try to find ways that work for you. :)

I have dyslexia and this is my experience. My main problem is feeling normal, I see all my friends and think of how they can all learn normally. It depresses me. Every year of school has come with some sort of special class that I was forced to go to, that make me feel even more and more like a freak. I know that my parents were only trying to help me, but it only ever made me feel like a different, and not in a good way. Every teacher I've ever had, including the special needs teachers, don't under stand what dyslexia is and how to teach kids with it. Every special class was a barrier not a path. All the special need classes were during SSR, in a room with a bunch of loud kids, to do homework. I had no problem with homework, It was the reading part. Being placed in a class, with loud students, during my only time to read, never helped my case. I never actually started overcoming my dyslexia, until sophomore year, I am a junior. I find that the more I read , the better i get at it. I don't think the entire school system needs to change, but i do think the school system needs to under stand what dyslexia is, and how to teach kids with it.

I recognize so much in what Dean is saying. It feels good to read all the reactions, it makes me feel less like an outsider. My whole adolescence I've been struggling with education. In fact, I thought I was dumb for a long time. Thank god my mom forced me through High School (not everyone has this privilege). In the third year of university I started to enjoy studying. Because it was possible to get extra time for exams I was getting good grades for the first time in my life. It felt great and I was having fun, so I continued studying. Now I have a MBA and work as a business consultant. I hope that someday nobody with dyslexia has to feel like I did (we did) and will get the same opportunities as everyone else. Dean's initiative is a great start - great man!

I am a young dyslexic and have struggled my whole life with the idea that I have been put at a disadvantage with learning because the traditional education system is so unaccommodating to the dyslexic mind. An even more haunting thought is that in the future it is highly possible that I pass this onto my children, so they too would have to suffer from the shame and hurt that our education system would undoubtedly give them. But this has given me hope that the future of dyslexics is not as sealed in negativity as much as that of past generations. We are slowly coming to realize that dyslexia is not a limit to what a person can accomplish, but simply a side effect of having a wonderfully different mind.

Very intelligent and creative child. I also transferred the app idea to labels/stickers to empower her to complete math worksheets without the cumbersome need to write which was masking her abilities.
