“Wish peers and family members understood dyslexia, and what it is
like during school. Just getting through the day can be really tough.
Writing, spelling, and taking notes is harder than anyone can ever
imagine . It’s like the words refuse to come out of my head!
I’m amazed by my creativity and ability to think out side the box. I’m
always seeking ways to improve concepts, and make processes better.
My brain is like a computer screen and processes information at
lightening speeds.
When I see my class mates getting straightA’s, I want to be like them.
Yet, its hard because of the dyslexia.”

“Dyslexics think differently.
They are intuitive and excel at
problem-solving, seeing the big picture,
and simplifying.
They are poor rote reciters, but inspired
visionaries.” Sally Shaywitz
