happy in my dyslexic skin

Being dyslexic is like being punched on the nose by the invisible man, we can feel the effects we can see the results of the punch but we don't know where it came from. There has been so much research into the causes of dyslexia and so little progress. We still cannot agree on any definition for dyslexia, we have a myriad of theories but little solid evidence on why people are dyslexic . I think you are right Graeme start at the end and work back. A dyslexic student will come for support and I am presented with someone who has lived a lifetime as a dyslexic. We work together to develop stratagies that will enable them to become more effective and efficient learners. Moreover, we can then explore how dyslexia may have impacted their learning in school, on their confidence and self esteem and hopefuly enable them to become more comfortable and confident in their dyslexic skin.
