People with dyslexia have long been thought to only have trouble reading, which consequently causes problems in school and throughout their life. This is true — it takes five times more energy for dyslexics to do phonetic decoding compared to a normal brain. This video, however, shows how people with dyslexia can also excel in the areas of entrepreneurship, engineering, architecture, and the arts.
Dyslexics have the unique ability to look at a situation, identify seemingly disparate pieces of information, and blend those into a narrative that most people can’t see. The dyslexic brain is simply different, and changing how we teach them could help unlock their hidden potential. In order to remove learning blocks for dyslexics, the subjects dyslexics are more capable in should be embedded into the educational system for better variety.
Variety keeps us focused, and makes different learning systems work together. That’s why variety is a core component of the Learning Success System.
If you’d like a system that uses variety as well as other important principles for overcoming a learning difficulty grab your copy of the Learning Success System.
Key takeaways
- Dyslexics have the ability to look at the situation and identify seemingly disparate pieces of information and blend those into a narrative or tapestry that most people can't see.
- On the other hand, people with dyslexia have difficulty in doing phonetic decoding.
- In order to remove learning blocks for dyslexics, subjects such as engineering, entrepreneurship, architecture and the arts should be embedded in the educational system.
Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
