Khosi: You can go to an Educational Psychologist to get assessed. Some schools have one that they work with regularly.
So insightful. I went to the same high school with Khosi. I am so proud of you Khosi. Keep shinning .
No man, TCC needs to be on Netflix, Showmax etc. No episode I’ve watch I haven’t resonated or learned anything from. Siyabonga TCC team 🙏🏽 mmereko wa lonna is commendable.
I relate so much with this episode, I had this problem, but I was not diagnosed, I think I have Dyslexia, what made my it difficult for me was the teachers, they used to say my child as long as we can see what you are trying to say, we will give you marks, so I developed a system of memorizing the first three (3) letters the rest I would like bad, only to find that latter in life that I cannot see words in my mind, I developed a photographic memory, I studied Internal Auditing, but I had to leave the profession because, I was a great Auditor the challenge was that I could put my Audit finings in an Audit Report, then studied Project Management, then my Masters in Business Administration. To this day, I am scared of responding to group WhatsApp, I thought it was my grammar kanti it was my Dyslexia. If I have to do a presentation at work, I have to ask my PA, to check it several times, because I can't see if there is a spelling error. I cant type while the projector is on, because people will expect you to correct something so I just avoid that.
Your story is very interesting, thanks for sharing. If I may ask, who diagnosed you and declared that you are dyslexic? I'm trying to find out which profession is meant to diagnose..
You just explained my life, I was never diagnosed but I knew. I'm a structural engineer by profession that has side hustles of anything that requires me to be artistic. I'm a MUA, I do event decors, I do interior designing, I'm a architect, I paint (wall art), I'm a fashion designer sometimes. I'm now thinking of adding photographer to the list. Yes I wish i could spell & read easy as a grown up and its a big insecurity but I would never trade what my brain can do for what it cant.
Bathung….Am I even normal? I mean, I relate to each and every episode. This is the cutest thing ever. Thank you, TCC family! ❤️
I wish there was more hype around Dyscalculia. People with dyscalculia are shamed for being bad at maths.
That’s me. I have it.💔
I think I’m also dyslexic, I struggle with reading subjects, writing essays and reporting.
But good with economics, accounting and that what my career is in.
I find the things that are more practical more interesting than reading and writing.
And now i have a son who is neurodiverse, I he enjoys maths, sports etc.
This is a good conversation, thank you to you guest for enlightening me. This were I need to focus on especially for my son.
Thank you. Diagnosed with Dyslexia at 9 and it has been hard. Now busy with my BBA beautiful motivation.
Beautiful episode, as a parent who is raising neurodivergent child it gives me hope
Thnks for having Khosi and wish people in the education department can watch this video and Justice Mokheli's so that teachers in schools can be well trained to identify kids with this problem because teachers are not doing well in identifying this kids and its really sad❤❤
Am l the only one who plays each episode with five devices, just to up the views while l enjoys listening to you ladies and of course Sir Given?
Ah hle 🥹♥️
ohhh this is so heart felt. thank you for sharing your story, Khosi. Am currently studying in Cape peninsula university of technology first year. looooveee the TCC, you know just putting. Am not sure if I have dyslexic but I'll be starting with am assessments hopeful soon. I know and understand the road to even enter varsity. Ill love to say thank you for your story. It was a milestone for me to even write this small paragraph but all i wanted to say is thank your guys. More love
Ursula Mhle guys hey...... her beauty is natural and ayidini, ngathi ungambuka all the time.
Talk about the imperativeness of self awareness. I feel like she just told a story of many of us, almost everything she said i can relate.🙆🏽♂️
Really great episode guys and I think I’m with Bra Given, let’s have her back😂🙏🏾❤️
I am raising a neurodivergent boy child . This is inspiring ❤. Thank you Ursula and team .Khosi You are a Star . May it always shine .
Thank you somuch Ursula with team
This subjects are very true and touching
When you go back to your childwood journey you see some of our classmates that we were making fun of what they were suffering from but we didn't know both teachers and us as children more Special our African culture
That's why I would like to venture on teaching more specifically catering for those kida in our Black community
Its deep man😢 and painful
Your right Ursula we were taught that reading and writing is the only way and stem subjects determine or measures how smart you are and how you will amount to something great. So if you not a stem subjects person and dyslexic then it becomes very sad.
Your laughter is contagious ladies.
Thank you for an educational episode and making it easy for your guest, and shout out to her for being herself and breaking the ice 😂😂
I am definitely having learning disorder. I am all over the place, can't comprehend the material given. Even if the question is easy, for me it's too good to be true.
best analogy for variables, functions, classes and solution, Khosi is brilliant.
Thank for sharing your dyslexia story. I wish I had this information 23 years ago, but I guess it’s never too late to search for help.keep shining khosi
The way Ursula calls Bonga Botha ❤
The first time I got to know TCC podcast was a short of Justice's interview on Tiktok. I came on YT to listen the whole episode and was taken by that guy's confidence and work regardless of being dyslexic and I have been here consistently since. I'm not shocked that Khosi has gotten this far, somehow if you understand yourself, you can do everything you put your mind to.
😂😂😂 I am Bonga and Given! Then I saw Ursula's look and I pulled myself towards myself..
Askies for embarrassing you Host..
Enlightening conversation. Khosi power to you girl!
@the team, thank you for all these guests. The conversations haunt me, I surely take away some nuggets each time I watch.
I feel seen. Stopped at Master's level and I still feel like it's a miracle or "luck". But geez it's hard work. So proud of your journey
First time watching this podcast and wow, I cried and laughed❤️. Hearing about learning disabilities was eye opening. Thank you to the team and Khosi.
I loved this episode, very informative. I appreciate how she explained her journey and highlighted that some teachers struggle to handle children properly by labeling them as smart or not. Everyone is different, and I wish schools could recognize this and not expect all children to be the same.
I admire your courage and creativity in sharing your journey with dyslexia on UA-cam. Your resilience and talent are truly inspiring. Keep up the great work-you’re making a positive impact on so many people!😊
This interview was so informative. Thank you guys for bringing Khosi in ❤❤❤❤
What an informative episode💯....
Khosi, YOU ARE A STAR KEEP SHINNING❤
Thank you so much for this episode, I’m a young mom to a 12 year old and I try my best to not push her too hard when it comes to academics & sports, she’s a chubby girl so definitely not the best at sports, I do find that she gets a lot of pressure from school to perform and be outstanding & that frustrates her. She will always say mom I’m doing my best, I’m not lazy, but it’s just not enough for my teachers. It hurts me because I know how hard she works, she’s an average student gets B’s & C’s and I’m happy with her results because I know she will thrive elsewhere but I find that the teachers are not equipped accordingly. They will always have negative feedback
Hallo hallo , I like following you pals l. We can't get enough of capital conversation
This was lovely to see and some light shed on this topic, i also know not much is known of dyscalculia which is a learning disorder that affects a person’s ability to understand number-based information and math, hopefully some awerness will go a long way to help more people out and knowledge of it.
Not her closing making me think that my nephew could be dyslexic 🤔 he’s very smart and musically talented but he’s writing is somehow lol OMG thank you Khosi for sharing your story.
Thank you ❤
I'm dyslexic I got tested this year thanks
I relate with her so much Iv been struggling with this for many years. The one thing I can confidently attest to is being Dyslexic does not mean that you are not intelligent, I got my Law degree cum laude . I guess being more aware of ur limitations push’s u to work extra hard.
"Neurodivergency it's not the end of the world" ❤
I remember I got a 49% and a 100% on one paper, my teacher said I erased the right answers
Also time during an exam I panick so my mind races to finish within 30mints or I think something bad is gonna happen
Oh my gosh I also struggle with this,always first to finish and always anxious about passing because of failure from the past💔
This is my son in a female adult form.he can articulate himself very well but can't even write a sentence.hes 8yrs old.
“I can’t even see what you wrote” 🤣😂🤣😩
Can you please provide me with her UK connection? I am dyslexic too. Thank you for this episode.
Informative as always ❤
Hello I have a son who struggles with reading and writing, so the speech therapist said I must take him to remedial school but in his school they referred him to special school. I didn't take him to special school because of what speech therapist said, so I looked for remedial schools and they all private schools and can't afford to pay. Please advise me to help my son.
Can we have the name of the high school she attend...I think I have to enroll my son to that school bcos he is too struggling and I know he is dyslexic
I was sent to a special school, which didn't even help me, i feel like the education system failed me 💔
