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.

how can we vote for inclusion?

So who do disabled people vote for in the next UK election? But whats the choice Labour? nope......the condems again?........nope............. the conservatives?............ nope the lib dems.........nope........ its all the same shit just a different colour. We as disabled people need to take our fight into parliament by becoming a political party. Just under eleven million people voted comservative in 2010 and there are over 11 million disabled people in the UK. We need a social justice party to fight for disabled people's right live in dignity, without fear and with inclusion.

suffer with dyslexia ME? never!!!!!

Read yet another article which talks about dyslexia sufferers. Drives me crazy every time I read stuff like this.

 

I certainly do not suffer with dyslexia but I do suffer with are non dyslexics and dyslexia specialists telling me I am disabled.

 

Without dyslexia I don't believe I would have been a good teacher, an entrepreneur, musician, creative, great problem solver and determined.

 

I am an individual who happens to be dyslexic.

barriers

Society places many barriers in front of all us dyslexic, disabled, non disabled, black, white etc. I should know as a dyslexic I have had to break through enough of them. But the hardest barriers to break through can be the ones we place in front of ourselves.
