Byslexia or Dyslexia?
2001
Many people make the assumption that being dyslexic means you are not as smart as others, but this is not true. People with dyslexia may learn at a slower rate than others or may seem to have trouble with reading and writing but this does not make them less intelligent. Benjamin Franklin, Galileo, and Pablo Picasso had dyslexia; were they less intelligent? Many people even consider dyslexia as a gift rather than a disability. As you further explore this website, you will learn new information about this learning disability that you might not have known before. In this website, we have the history of dyslexia, and suggestions on how to adapt to it.
