Dyslexia: Disability or Different Ability? | Aliah Banchik | TEDxTulane

I am a Dylexsic was thrown from school due to failures... I never pass any exam... But Later in life I recognized that I like shapes and patterns and mathematics due to youtube... I did my PhD in mathematics, the topic was to generate shapes. Dyslexia helps to see patterns which normal people cannot

I’m so impressed at not just your well -researched speech and how well you spoke, but how you memorised that entire thing! Wow

Vision boards and mind maps changes my life. My list have list and nothing gets done. Thanx for this talk!! Spot on!!

Excelent message, great job young lady. I’m crying because of your talk, my son was just diagnosed with dyslexia. He is extremely talented and I see how he has unique abilities. I’m determined to support him every day ❤

40% of self made millionaires are dyslexic! Prior to the recent literal times - we were the problem solvers, strategists, creative latera thinkers that everyone wanted around. So much is lost in society by the relatively "new" assessment criteria. I invented a way to spell which I help dyslexics with. My last job was head of department in a specialist Dyslexic school. I took them from 13% to 100% A to C grades in just one year. I have nothing but respect for the brilliance of the dyslexic mind

Thank You very Much, im 59 years old, i am Dislexic, I am a Dog Groomer, this profestion has saved my life, your right on the piont here .Dogs dont talk, lol. I hope yourmessage get thought to the educational system .. Rock on !!

Thanks! I know exactly what you speak about from my own life. As a hard core dyslexic i were able to study law(german university) and became a lawer. What i learned, way to many over estimate language skills and orthography. Even as a lawyer at the end the content is important and not the right spelling;) I got told from my clients, they like my work, because i find solutions no one was thinking about before. I think it is because i am dyslexic. I think in pictures, thats how i can see the details with out loosing the whole picture.

So encouraging and so clearly articulated with the empathy of of a fellow dyslexic, live long and prosper.

Great talk, Ms Banchik!!! My sister is dyslexic and now I understand her suffering a whole lot more.

Awesome. We can see (mentally/visually project), also with our minds' eye the new wave of education restructure.

You are awesome! Thank you so much for this talk. I hope many see this because it will change them for the better!

What an amazing video! My son struggled in school because of dyslexia. It affected his self-esteem. Education should be based on more than reading and writing. Students gain knowledge through experiences
