Young Anais gave a speech to at her school on dyslexia which she re-reads for the camera. She introduces herself as one of the many faces of dyslexia. She then disputes the notion that you’re dumb if you’re dyslexic and she cites several famous people with dyslexia, including Albert Einstein.

She explains that, with dyslexia, the brain gets confused and scrambles the letters in your head so then you can’t read that word. She admits that having dyslexia was difficult, but once you get used to it, it’s actually fun. After being diagnosed with dyslexia, she found an awesome teacher who has helped her overcome the challenges.

Key takeaways

There are many famous and intelligent dyslexics include Albert Einstein and Jamie Oliver; dyslexia is not a sign of low intelligence.
Dyslexia is a learning disorder where the brain scrambles letters so you can’t read the actual word on the page.
Getting great help is vital for those with dyslexia- they need a teacher who is patient and can make learning fun.

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.
