Hello

You really need someone to help you. Is there a learning support or study support department you can go to? Have you tried mindmapping? The key to this is good planning. You need to put all subject headings down on paper that you are going to cover - no detail just topics which you will talk about. This will help you to keep on track and only talk about what's relevant. You need strucure so that uyou can gradually build on this. I think you will find this easier if you have someone to guide you.

You need to make sure that the time you do spend working is quality time - set yourself goals of sitting for 20 mins or half an hour. Often dyslexics can only concentrate for short periods. Have a 5 minute wander and go back to your work.

Make sure you are in a quiet area where you are not easily distracted.

You may want to read 'The Gift of Dyslexia' by Ronald Davis. Let me know if I can help further.

Kate
