Help people with dyslexia and help students at school and also at college they need more sported a student in the classroom because it is vital for everyone
7:00 many of these points hereafter are really useful and resonate. It’s a shame I never saw this in my school - it even helps when a teacher explains those systems. The coloured books & buildings. Memory is my biggest weakness. And when being ‘taught at’ I find it really hard to concentrate. I can only sustain long term ingestion of information when I’m really keen on the subject, it’s in a dynamic situation, and feel involved in the process. A lecture, a presentation etc. are going to mostly go in and out each ear. But a workshop is better. And if it involves problem solving then better still; putting together the chunks of jigsaw/cogs evolves. I think aged 5 or 6 one of my teachers Mr Irons recognised it. Suggested I be tested. And would let me go run off energy in the middle of class. Sounds odd in hindsight given the need for fairness etc. I don’t recall anyone having difficulty like me in reading aloud or writing on the blackboard. Over the years I grew to know most of the 300 students in my year at secondary. Given the school knew my dyslexia, they did nothing to help that sounds like this video. Instead I was still asked to read aloud and then mocked by the other kids. The mocking was allowed and if anything the teacher was irritated I was so bad. It was a relief to be finally taken out of that class to avoid the instant redness, but it was still a shameful label that I was no longer in regular English class because I was now in the special kids class. One where the other couple of students sat there with pencils up their nose and didn’t seem to have any comprehension of anything. The polar extremes. Being given 25 percent extra time in exams did nothing for me. Other than, at uni, I would blurt out a bunch of crammed data onto page 1 (a list of recalled facts) and then cross it out. And I still found many questions written ambiguously; I could fret over that for hours. And we were docked marks for spelling. Essentially the academic system doesn’t fit, and the exams are not a true reflection of comprehension or ability; it seems more like a memory test. I always put this down to being what society wants - you can remember where the stuff goes, you’re not good to these vital jobs. I did fine in maths. Never scored below 97 in class. But bombed in exam. I couldn’t remember rules, formula etc. Yet in A level class I recall forming an approximation of formula needed for each differential equation quite well, before we wrote it out. And the constant use of large numbers made the approximation of those sums easier. It was a visual thing in my head, not a steps system. I was trying to see the overall goal / answer. Yet this is daft, because I like to follow process and if you miss a step in maths you can make mistakes and not find why. I was also baffled when the exam contained stuff we never did in class; I would recall if we had done volumes of a cone, it’s a visual thing, but doesn’t mean I’d remember the formula. Ha. If you gave me a fidget spinner in class, I would’ve stopped listening; wondered how the spinner works; what speed you need to generate a status that it can’t be knocked out of true; or can it fly; … my mind would be elsewhere. The big picture always helps me. I can’t get onboard until I know the overall aim of the days lesson or presentation. A brief summary of the chunks and the end product. Without it I’m constantly lost trying to figure out where it’s going. It’s why I struggle to talk with many people who often become irritated when my enthusiasm jumps to step ten - I could be right sometimes and it still annoys them, or there’s times I’ve missed the direction and they’re annoyed I’m not listening. I get very bored with tedious facts; this being outside an education system (as repetition of small facts is actually helpful). Fickle. I never knew why we had to learn about electrons or such in A level physics and so I wasn’t interested. It’s only in adult life things have clicked and I wish the teacher had given its relevance and illustrated its foundation in the bigger pictures. Whereas the quantum topic was fascinating and I did perfectly well in class for that snippet. Nice guy but totally the wrong teacher for my needs. Middle aged. Having slogged it out in consulting within construction (QS) and found burnout and taken v redundancy. I’ve zero idea where my skills would be needed in society. I don’t see a fit.
6:14 😭 OMGGGG!!!! YESSSSSS!!!!! 😩 FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS THAT I CAN ONLY THINK 3-4 WORDS AHEAD BEFORE I NEED TO PAUSE!!!! 🥺 I thought i was the only one who thought that…
I'm in my 60s and I see that you are all still trying to bring the dyslexics into your way of thinking, not going to happen. my brain was hard wired for mechanical things, still to this day when I look at a thing I see it in a 3 dimensional schematic. that can be exploded, rotated, parts removed or altered, and placed back together in my head. and yes I have dyslexia its strange I still have great difficulty reading, but I can design something in my head then build it but really cant read. even this amount of text has taken me about 65mins to wright and several computer spell checking's. school was extremely frustrating to myself, in parting something I asked a grade 9 English teacher. was if I put a gas engine in front of you with a seized piston could you repair it. of course she said no then I reapplied well I can in my sleep, the feeling of hopelessness that you have looking at the engine is the same feeling of hopelessness that I have looking at the written word. this conversation with her after she had called me a functioning idiot because my reading skills where so bad. and yes I walked out of the school at that point, something to learn about dyslexic brains we see the world differently we are not going to see it like you so please learn what motivates and is important to that individual. then adapt your teaching to their needs, dyslexics are far from stupid we just se the world differently. if we where stupid there wouldn't be an large amount of use at "MIT".
I wish we changed or add the laws in America so all the adults with dyslexia would get assistive technology help in every day life with reading and writing. We should the future for kids and adults alike.
And exactly I totally agree with you they need to make it easier for us adults to help us out getting jobs and reading and writing I'm scared to go get my license I'm 40 years old and I still don't have my license why because I'm scared of the reading and writing part I feel embarrassed and I'm going to feel.
Phonetics confused the ever-living daylights out of me in school. I did learn by memorization on my own. I also learn to read by the look of the entire word. For example , if there's a short story done with letters and numbers I can read that easily. Even though many letters are missing and numbers are used instead . A word can have letters and numbers and I understand the word. In my situation phonetics was a nightmare . Memorization was key to my learning. I also am left-handed so I had to adopt two things in a right-handed world. I consider both of these situations to be adventitious .
I totally agree with you. I don't think phonics works well for dyslexic. For me memorization was the key once. I memorized something, I knew what it was. Sounding it out was horrible I couldn't even teach my kids how to sound out words when they were in elementary school.
Without phonics I wouldn't likely be able to write even now (I'm 44). That added to spell check and I can write well enough that people can understand what I am saying. If memorisation had have been the only option it would have made me unemployable. I was taught (Specific Learning Difficulties team Hereford and Worcester who helped me at school) that the way to sound out phonics is easy if you put your hand under your chin, say the word, each time your jaw drops it's a phonic sound.
wonderful information, but please consider the easier reading approach of spell reading, which is very visual and outspeeds any phonic approach for reading teaching and does not force the dyslexic to use forceful concentration to succeed! Multisensory is great though!
What I want to know is how can universities change the way they expect assessments to be completed for bachelor's degrees, to measure acceptable levels of knowledge? As an adult who has attempted university many times and struggle to complete a degree, I find the research and essay writing utterly exhausting. I do well, scoring distinctions and high distinctions, but the process burns me out, making sustainable study to complete a degree feel painful and nigh impossible.
Is it possible to either: A. Find a chunked degree, like an Open University where you can take as many years as you like. Or B. Find a course (and maybe a career unfortunately) that relies less on exams, but gives marks to small chunks of coursework. Or C. If it has to be strictly that type of degree you struggle with, is there any professional help you can get? Indeed unlocking where to find this support would be highly valuable - it’d be nice if these cash rich universities laid this on for free. I got given a small grant to buy a computer for university. It barely helped. My skills with Word only began to click when I had been working for about 7 or 8 years (the latter 2 being much more heavily involved with writing reports). The force feeding of writing reports made it so that it became easier. Word processor was really helpful.

Teacher need trying about dyslexia to hlep with in the classroom . The students need hlep the most in live and the future and is that true. and I am right about it to as well.
Dyslexia is still a have issue today 20% of the of pollution has dyslexia and over 50% of prison inmates are dyslexia. There is no. legal requirement for school to have any dyslexia specialist teacher.
When I was a kid I was told I was thick but it was because I was dyslexic 30 years later why do kids get all the support and there is nothing for adults
I agree. My Teachers was mean to me. The understand dyslexia. They Refuse my test never be tested. The put in Special ed with techer was mean. Uneducated about dyslexia. They ignored my issue
Hi I am karen the kid know as strange because my brain is misunderstood makes me understand my brain more thank you so much for the video where I live teachers aren’t really aware of that I have never heard of a kid ever in my school who has this problem I’ve never noticed a kid and I can assist in struggling with my cousin and dyslexia or not biologically related though because I’m adopted like she has the same problems I do and I can recognize that the teachers don’t know what it is I don’t have this problem and my cousin was never tested but I think she has dyslexia and she’s training to become a nurse
I totally disagree. As a dyslexic. Phonics...forget it. 70 now. I probably read a book a day, in fiction, slower with nonfiction. But I'm definitely a sight reader. I couldn't (as a teacher) teach phonics. In fact, I was a reading specialist. If they needed phonics, I had another student teach them. But I was able to teach 15 year olds to read, using sight words. Blah....each dyslexia is different! And yes, it was HARD to learn the times table, but glad I struggled through it. Just took me much longer than other kids. And uh.....what's wrong with letting things be disorganized. Out of the jumble can come amazing stuff!
Weirdly learning Latin helped me with Grammar, because you need to work out what a sentence is saying because it actively requires grammar rather then passively
When dyslexics finally get reading, 5th or 6th grade, I don’t bother with reading punctuation or the phenoms, none of this matters for me to understand the writers point. Short stories are a pain. I have to have time, distanced to get the pattern of each writer, I begin to predict where they will go.
