Well done, Michael. Great insights and with both my sons being diagnosed with dyslexia its is great to see the topic being discussed in our industry
Thanks you for sharing
Women,,,??
What an amazing young lady, fantastic research and simplification of such a complex need. Well done Philippa dyslexia is not hold her back🥰😃
Kate McElderry is not only a gifted teacher/educator, she is an incredibly talented and creative writer. I laughed out loud when first reading the character names she came up with for the book! The book answers questions and helps shed light on neurodiversity and the dyslexic population Kate has worked with for the past 20 years. This book is an absolute gem!
Great presentation. I believe this is a great resource to inform teachers and students about the strengths of neurodiversity
Such an inspiring and illuminating presentation on neurodiversity and learning. Kate’s teachings and book are transformative in guiding any family, child, or educator in navigating the winding journey of dyslexia. Her explanations are profound in their simplicity and insightful in viewing the “whole child.” She has made me a better mom and advocate for my two neurodiverse kids. Thanks, Kate for showing us the way!

Kate, I love your book!
A wonderful presentation by one of the world's most dynamic advocates for science-based reading instruction and an eloquent champion of neurodiversity. I read Marking a Mark as soon as it became available in the US and strongly recommend it to educators, parents and kids. Congratulations to Kate and a huge thank you for all you do.

Interesting conversation I think neurodivergent is important too as many people have dyslexia with other neurodivergent type brians and as mentioned traits can over lap. I also see there is value to individual names of course, but we need to be careful about too much separation as we can end up giving more focus, and so more supports, to one neurotype over another. Or more stigma being assigned to one neurotype then another. I found that I've really benefited being in a community of many types of neurodivergent people, in terms of support, than when I felt boxed into Dyslexic only.
A caring teacher can make such a huge difference in a child's life. It can be so huge it cannot even be measured.
So, dyslexia doesn't rule out being highly intelligent and articulate. A very interesting video
Bawled my eyes out.
I am sixty-five years old. Sadly, as a child, instead of receiving help for being dyslexic I was forced to sit in the corner and wear a dunce cap. I was unmercifully teased by students and berated by teachers. Art became my safe haven. After seeing this film, I wept ... uncontrollably.
i'm 66 and was treated the same way.

Watching this videos made me tar up ! IM still in school and am struggling with dyslexia I had a screening test in school , but thats not a proper test (it’s runs in the family so i have a higher chance ) IM getting testing soon though ! This video reminds me on almost all of my teachers , I had to stay in at break to finish my work because IM a slow writer or diddent spell things right , my parents had to have several meetings with the schools about my Behaviour and Eductaion to help them realise that not everyone lears the same ! In the last 2 years I had got kicked out of my fist maths class and my second maths class and I never got help they just say me in the corner and never bothered to help me ! I then got meoved into a Lower set with all other people that were struggling ! My teacher helped me so much with my behaviour and Education I cannot thank her enough 😊 ! I also got moved into a SEN Literacy last year to help with my Literacy skills Whitchurch means I miss out on Languages , but this year I just got moved back into languages and I am almost 2 years behind and I always get told off for not knowing the language ! I then can’t handle it anymore that I just walk out ! A SENCO teacher might be giving a ADHD test for the teachers to tick of I think , so I hope that will help me ! I also struggle a lot in other lessons that include writing and teacherS just don’t understand and they C3 me (kick me out of lesson) because of my Behavior or Educational difficulty’s ! I also have a mean form tutor that picks on me and if doesent help that she is my science teacher !I have got quite low grades so I hope that I will get help with this soon because IM in year 9 (13 years old )now, and GCSEs are not that long away ! I know it hurts to say this but IM used to it by now the amount of teachers picking on me because I can’t read ,write , spell , listen to instructions and focus as good as other people makes me feel quite sad but I know there is hope and it’s coMIng slowly but surly ! I wish everyone else the best and I will look back on this comment next year and hope that all is well ! Lots of love Izzy
Aww the little actor is such a dote 🤗
Well done Dave, and yes you do talk. Always good to hear from you 👍
thank you✨
Really good and thank you for been so honest and brave! You are brilliant!
What a great poem
I know Keith Murphy from when he first came in the door to NLN, a true gentleman who showed extreme determination, having been his mentor for 2 years, (ECDL included) I am no way surprised as to what he has achieved, TRUE he does not STOP, he is an example to anyone with his life along his path, I was delighted to see him enter Maynooth under a True Gentleman and great mentor Dr Michael Kenny. Keith I am so proud of you "You are a shining Light" Wishing you all the best in your career
Keith, it's lovely to hear the conclusion of your journey so far. You have a lovely way of presenting
Anyone who has had the pleasure of getting to know Keith, knows he is such a lovely man with a heart of gold. As a long time friend, he is an inspiration to behold as he battled through all the hurdles in front of him. I'm so happy for Keith who persevered and got his doctorate. His present and future students are very lucky to have such a gem to aid them on their educational journey
Agree
Extremely proud and inspired by you everyday
Very much seen 🙏🙏🙏
My 7yrs old son has dyslexia. We are still struggling. His so genius the other way around except school where his teachers and classmates don’t understand. 😭 And he has beautiful heart ❤️
Don't worry one day he will become late bloomers, do not give up.. All the best
Jane, why don’t you play some acoustic songs on UA-cam? Listened to that ‘scrap shell for my seagull’ tune of yours, it was fantastic. Seriously great, and would love to hear more of your singing.
I couldn't read an analog clock when I was 11 on the account of having dyscalculia. Of course, I didn't know that at the time, but it was compounded by the fact that I had a sadistic teacher who took every opportunity to humiliate me by highlighting my failures. I totally feel your pain.
Dr Keith Murphy has been a lecturer of mine for the last 4 years. He is one of the most understanding, relatable, supportive and kind educators I have had the pleasure of meeting. Our class has been so lucky to be supported by him. You go Keith!
Not everybody that is dyslexic / neuro divergent is ashamed of themselves, what tosh, this projection of the speakers experience onto others is a tad self indulgent, but hey he can build his "profile" up I guess.
So I don’t have dyslexia but I have this thing odd and I did an assessment yesterday In school and I don’t understand Irish so if I don’t pass how will I know Irish next year I’m secondary . The person did that assessment with me was called Roz mcphan not sure if you know her so. Odd is basically that you read something but then it goes out of your head so I want to not do Irish I’m really nervous for my results ? What should I do? If you know Roz mcphan can you show her this please and I forgot to tell her something and . Also Roz mcphan is from the department of education as well please if you know her please can you let her look at my comment thanks btw my name is Rebecca

This made me cry
love the videos sadly the audio is very quiet
Can something be done about the narrator's volume please? Can't hear what's being said.
If my child is diagnosed with dyslexia, and wants to go onto college and study medicine, but the course required 2 languages. How does that work going forward ?
What a pity that this ALL has to be read. How wonderful it would be to hear from the children. Not very dyslexia friendly in my opinion.

Thanks Jane. May your work with DAI aid parents, teachers, and others to become aware of this condition. I have suffered from Dyslexia from my earliest school days. I had to repeat second grade at age 7 and then had special reading sessions every day at school with a therapist to help me (bless her heart: Miss O'Neill). It doesn't really go away for some; we just learn to cope the best we can and let friends know of our struggle.

Very touching, thank you for posting
I've never been diagnosed with it but I know I have it as I did struggle in primary school and my P7 teacher had my IQ tested. I came out above average but it didn't address the problems I was having and they had been evident from P5. In first year of high school my English teacher was pretty good but never said anything to me. It wasn't until about 10 years ago that she said she was certain from her experience of my work in first year, that I had some form of Dyslexia. I then explained to her how about how my mind sees certain things the wrong way around yet still on sight, they make sense at the time. It is only when I look again that I see what was actually there and of course the meaning is completely different from what I first thought. It hasn't greatly hindered me as an adult and has sometimes been a benefit yet I know I could have achieved more if I'd been given the right kind of help when I was in school.
Thank you DAI for this wonderful film. It brought tears to my eyes when I saw the teachers awful reaction to the child, and how the children made fun. This happened to my daughter. I had to take our child out of school because State Education caused serious anxiety issues with the education pressure and bullying. Our Melody made a You Tube film when she was 10 years old with Moshi Monsters. It shows how she cried in the toilets because she was made to feel stupid and worthless. Here is her film: ua-cam.com/video/caoauXk1wY0/v-deo.html The sad thing is, bullying on You Tube has the biggest views. Too many people suffer. It is our Melody Angels 18th Birthday this month. And it breaks my heart that she still does not see her wonderful Dyslexic gifts as something special. She only sees what she cannot do, or finds hard to do. Children need educating in school that they are lucky to have sponge like memories, and that goes for Academics too. I would like to see the Education and Exam system change to be Dyslexic friendly. If you search You Tube you will find our daughters two original songs. She has a voice of an Angel, and her Lyrics are beautiful. Her stage name is Melody Angelicus. Our Melody is also a creative writer and artist. And she has a kind heart! My message to all parents. Our daughter now loves books. She collects them. I got her to love reading with singing stories. And finding picture books in the Library that interested her. Being Dyslexic myself, and very proud of it. I think outside of the box. Melody's teacher said she could not read a big book, we proved her wrong. Here is my free reading help. It worked for Melody, I am sure it will work for your child: butterflylullaby.blogspot.com/2017/11/free-reading-help-for-dyslexic-children.html Good luck everyone. Because nobody should suffer or feel stupid because of Academic BULLIES! P.S. I was taught ITA English Twaddle in School. An Alien backward language. Later on I had to relearn how to read and spell all over again because of this terrible education. This proves British Academic Elites make mistakes; therefore, they should listen to us with regards to our children's education. Not only was I educated badly, but I had Dyslexia and terrible Asthma. Always off school. But I am a Warrior. I taught myself to type, worked my way from reception to Managing Directors Secretary. And have owned three properties. I refuse to allow this Elite British Run Country to make any child feel stupid and worthless, I demand change and an apology. The good news is, I have cured my Asthma naturally with organic fruit/veg and wild herbs, because I think outside the box. So we are not so stupid after all! I have a wonderful immune system and totally drug free, something I am very proud of.
I have a son who are 8yrs old who struggling to spell and read and he will goes to a class for weak reader about twice a week if I'm not mistaken and also having extra class to help him with his spelling and reading..I'm been separated with my ex and I'm not able to see my children for nearly 5yrs I always keep in touch with their school teacher so I can know their academy achievement and always got complaint that he can't spell or read and some of the teachers are concerned about him .My ex just don't listen and pay any mind of what the teacher saying and he said to the teacher that he is a late bloomer so his son also like that.I have feeling that he has Dyslexia as sometimes I asked the teacher to look at his work and his writing are bad and he will write down of the letter backwards...I feel helpless as I can do anything for him as I am far far away from him ....is there any method that I can help him to improve his spelling and reading...
