In school, educators are often aware of how to help students with dyslexia continue to learn. But once dyslexic individuals graduate and get into the working world, it can be challenging to continue to recieve dyslexic support from employers. Many employers think that dyslexia is only a reading or language difficulty, but those with the disorder actually process the world in a different way.
In this video, Rachel Mounsey and FixersUK discuss a campaign to create awareness of people working with dyslexia. Employers can maximize the creative side of most of dyslexics, and if given the right support, they can be an asset to the company or organization they’re working for. As this video notes, if these individuals’ needs are correctly addressed in the workplace, they can become valued, often unique members of the team.

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.
